Pat Kelly Conservative
“I do not know why the Liberals are ignoring reports and witnesses about military sexual assault. Nobody recommends keeping sexual misconduct cases in the military justice system. The government has spent 11 years failing to pass laws to solve this problem.”
“Mr. Speaker, I have no idea why. The member is asking why the Liberals are choosing to ignore all the testimony and the substance of all three reports. Nobody is saying that sexual assault and misconduct cases must stay within the military justice system. Nobody is recommending that. I have no idea why they are ignoring all the witness testimony they heard and why they spent 11 years not dealing with and solving the problem with legislation to deal with sexual misconduct in the armed forces.”
