Madam Speaker, I want to start by thanking a member of the member's caucus, who was speaking moments ago, the hon. member for Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound, for his service on behalf of this country in Afghanistan and for his work to help rescue women from Afghanistan. We can work together across party lines in this place.
My question for the parliamentary secretary might be taken from a Conservative point of view: Why does the government not just present the documents? As such, I want to ask the hon. member for Barrie—Innisfil, because I am truly baffled by this, why the leader of the Conservative Party will not get top secret security clearance. It would really clear the air about the line in the report from the committee of parliamentarians on foreign interference that mentions foreign interference in the Conservative Party leadership race.
I would appreciate it if the hon. leader of the official opposition would seek his top secret security clearance. Can the member for Barrie—Innisfil shed any light on why the leader of the official opposition still refuses to do so?
