Mr. Speaker, the Conservative leader's dangerous rhetoric is irresponsible.
The words of the Leader of the Opposition in relation to the RCMP are completely unacceptable.
The RCMP is an independent organization, one that enhances the rule of law in Canada and that ensures the safety and security of Canadians. Day in and day out, the RCMP officers on the ground work to save and secure this country.
I demand that the Leader of the Opposition retract the statement and apologize to the members of the RCMP.
