Mr. Speaker, as always, our thoughts are with the families as they continue to grieve, and my efforts are focused squarely, as they have been since day one, on supporting them. As the commissioner and the minister have clearly stated, the decision on what information is released and when is that of the police alone, and that was fully respected.

Mr. Speaker, first, our thoughts are with the families who are still grieving. We are focusing our efforts on the assistance to give them. The commissioner and the minister have reiterated many times that it is up to the police to decide what information is to be disclosed and when. This principle was fully respected in this situation and in all other situations.

Mr. Speaker, at the Rouleau commission, three police forces confirmed that the Emergencies Act was never needed to end the truckers' occupation in Ottawa. The RCMP, the Ontario Provincial Police and the Ottawa Police Service all told us they did not need it. The RCMP even warned the feds, hours before they invoked the act, that they had not yet exhausted all available tools. Can the Prime Minister explain why he invoked the Emergencies Act against the RCMP's advice?
