Ms. Lisa MacLeod: My question is to the Attorney General. You are a member of the legislation and regulations cabinet committee that recommended the secret G20 law that was rubber-stamped by the Premier. Why did you support the rubber-stamping of this legislation?

Hon. Christopher Bentley: I'm very pleased that yesterday, a review  was called by the government into the Public Works Protection Act legislation. As you know, my colleague the Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services called this. It is noteworthy that former Chief Justice McMurtry is leading this review, a person who, for more than a decade, stood in the chair that I stand in as Attorney General, who has not only been the chief justice of the province of Ontario, but brings to this review-I think we would all agree-a sense of knowledge, passion, impartiality, determination, to give the best possible recommendations and a fearlessness in saying what needs to be said.

The Speaker (Hon. Steve Peters): Supplementary?

Ms. MacLeod: The terms of the McMurtry review have nothing to do with holding those accountable, like the Minister of Health Promotion, for the secret G20 law and anything that they had to do to take account for. The Minister of Health Promotion was at the table that thought it was a good idea to pass the secret G20 law. So was the Attorney General, the ministers of revenue, citizenship and immigration, municipal affairs, natural resources, labour and consumer affairs-and guess who else was at the table? Let me tell you: the members for Peterborough, Ottawa Centre, Ottawa-Orléans, Mississauga-Streetsville, Willowdale, Bramalea-Gore-Malton, Ajax-Pickering and Algoma-Manitoulin. They all had seats at the table when this secret G20 law was stamped, so why didn't any single one of them speak up while people were being arrested in this city?

Hon. Christopher Bentley: As the member will know, it was the Prime Minister of Canada who named Toronto as the host. Toronto was the host of a conference. It was the federal government, led by the Prime Minister of Canada, the RCMP and the Toronto Police Service that requested additional security measures.

It is very, very important to remember the context in which the question is asked, and I'm sure my friend opposite will be able to call up the Prime Minister and ask him to conduct any inquiry that she wishes and provide any answer that he has to the question. She lives very close to the prime minister's residence. We are conducting a review with former Chief Justice McMurtry to get the best possible advice.
