Mr. Speaker, I do not think I am squabbling with anyone. There is another troubling matter I want to raise. Paul Bernardo got permission to leave his maximum-security prison and transfer to a more lenient one, despite the horrific crimes he committed. We know that the Minister of Public Safety has the power to stop this transfer. He can issue directives to this effect, and has done so in the past. However, he refuses to do it now. This is just one more item to add to his long list of bad decisions. Does the Prime Minister still have confidence in his Minister of Public Safety?

Mr. Speaker, we cannot imagine how much pain, anxiety and indignation the loved ones of Paul Bernardo's victims felt when they learned that the minister had known about the murderer's transfer for three months and said nothing. It was completely insensitive and downright irresponsible. This minister has lost all credibility when it comes to protecting victims. He needs to resign, right away. Is he going to resign?

Mr. Speaker, when we learned last week that serial killer Paul Bernardo was going to leave a maximum security prison, the Minister of Public Safety acted surprised. According to the CBC, he knew about this for three months. This minister misled Canadians. If ministerial responsibility and honour still mean anything to him, he should resign. Will he do that?

Mr. Speaker, contrary to what the Minister of Public Safety said, neither the RCMP nor the Ottawa Police Service asked the government to invoke the Emergencies Act. However, true to form, whenever the Prime Minister is confronted with his contradictions, he dodges the issue or blames others, and when that does not work, he takes cheap shots, which is what he has been doing throughout question period. Ministerial responsibility appears to be a foreign concept for this government. Will he ask his minister to resign?

Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the Minister of Emergency Preparedness, the very colleague of the Minister of Public Safety, said, “I am not aware of any recommendation from law enforcement. Quite frankly, this was a decision of government”. This completely contradicts what the Minister of Public Safety said. He has misled Canadians and the House. There must be consequences. Will the Prime Minister do the right thing and ask for his resignation?

Mr. Speaker, my question is very simple. He misled the House, so he should apologize and step down. Period.

Mr. Speaker, it is always someone else's fault. Being a minister comes with great responsibility. The minister stated several times, “It was on the advice of law enforcement that we invoked the Emergencies Act.” However, law enforcement never asked for draconian measures. Rex Murphy wrote in the National Post that, for the sake of his integrity, the minister should resign. What is he waiting for—

Mr. Speaker, on April 26, the Minister of Public Safety said, with regard to emergency measures, “I don't want to speak for every last serving member of law enforcement, but there was a very strong consensus that we needed to invoke the act.” We now know that there was no such consensus at any time. He has misled Canadians. He no longer deserves the confidence of the House. Will the minister do the only honourable thing left to do: apologize and resign?
