Rick Dykstra,
M.P.For St. Catharines, ON, Requesting Explanation Regarding Motion
Passed By Foreign Affairs Committee
From:
"Dykstra, Rick - M.P." <Dykstra.R@parl.gc.ca>
To: McDonoughA@parl.gc.ca
August 3, 2006
Dear Ms. McDonough;
I wish to register my strenuous objection to an August 1st motion
passed by opposition members of the House of Commons' Standing
Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development. The
motion to which I refer and which you spearheaded, prevented Mr.
Elias Bejjani, chairman of the Canadian Lebanese Coordinating
Council (LCCC) and the Canadian Lebanese Human Right Federation (CLHRF),
from speaking during the Committee's Hearing Session on the
government's Middle East policy and the evacuation of Canadians from
Lebanon. Mr. Bejjani represents the interests and viewpoints of
thousands of Lebanese-Canadians and his input at this hearing would
have been informative to committee members. As Mr. Bejjani was
accepted as a speaker by the Clerk of the Committee, I would like an
explanation as to why he and others of similar viewpoints were
prevented from delivering testimony.
I look forward to your response.
Regards, Rick Dykstra, M.P. St. Catharines, ON
