Liberals are stonewalling the release of info about why the 2 Chinese scientists were removed from the Winnipeg virus lab.
hey Gorgeous, did you pull those 'talking points' from the Post Millennial? Such a misinforming lacking substance/detail statement...
points in fact:
=> Liberals state the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) is the appropriate, most fitting committee, to review the (redacted) documents in question.
=> NSICOP MP members have an increased security clearance that the general complement of HOC MPs do not
=> the documents in question are not for public disclosure/purview
=> the showboating, grandstanding CPC/O'Foole have "pulled" their CPC MPs from the NSICOP committee with O'Foole claiming, "
the committee is now being used as a political tool by the prime minister to cover up the Winnipeg lab incident"
=> a CPC motion "demands" the head of PHAC (Iain Stewart) turn over the documents in question to the House while appearing before the house... in an effective "shaming" undertaking - a procedural measure that (as the waldo understands) hasn't been used since 1913!
=> Iain Stewart (the head of PHAC) has twice refused to comply with a Canada-China relations committee order to produce those documents, saying
federal Justice officials have advised him that would be a breach of privacy laws, could interfere in an ongoing police investigation and jeopardize national security.=> in response to a question the CPC asked of him, Iain Stewart advised the firing of the 2 Chinese scientists had nothing to do with Covid-19.
