Security Intelligence Review Committee Mr. Speaker, I reject the premise and innuendo of the hon. member's question. The SIRC was created by an act of this Parliament to operate at arm's length from the government, from Parliament itself and from CSIS. I really question why he thinks a subcommittee of this House

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Mr. Speaker, access to the RCMP's premises in Montreal is an internal management matter that concerns the RCMP.

Minister Of Canadian Heritage Mr. Speaker, I do not accept the premise of the hon. member's question.

G-7 Summit Mr. Speaker, I totally reject the premise of the hon. member's question. The face we are showing at the summit is that of a bilingual, proud and united country. The hon. member's attempt to tarnish this image of unity is regrettable.

Cornwallis Park Development Agency I will follow your admonition most closely, Mr. Speaker. I will say simply that I do not accept in any way what I consider to be the unwarranted insinuations and premise in the hon. member's question.
