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
