Madam Speaker, I would have been made to turn them over by the police, and that is the difference we have in Parliament. It is a funny thing that we have to stand here in a question of privilege, delaying the work of the House, because Parliament is demanding, and the Speaker, the Bloc and the NDP and the Conservatives have demanded, documents to be released. The only reason we are here debating and taking time away from the House today is that the government is refusing.
Yes, the RCMP will use the information. It can refuse it if it likes. It can start investigations any way it chooses. Yes, it has confirmed that it has started an investigation into the $400 million in misused funds.
Let us listen to Parliament for once and get the documents to the RCMP.
