Madam Speaker, perhaps my speech was not entirely clear. I will try to be clearer.
We must not tell the RCMP what to do or give it instructions. It is up to the RCMP to decide whether to intervene, period. It is the RCMP's decision. That is the foundation of democracy and the rule of law. We can talk with the RCMP's representatives, but we must not influence the RCMP or interfere in its decisions. It is the RCMP's responsibility to protect the rule of law in our democracy.
