Is Maxime Bernier's ex-girlfriend a national security risk?
14 min - May 9, 2008
May 8 and 9, 2008 - The Liberal Party and the Bloc Québécois attack the government over Foreign Affairs Minister Maxime Bernier's former relationship with Julie Couillard who had personal ties to Quebec bikers in the 1990's.
The government refused to answer the questions claiming they inappropriately malign the reputation of an innocent woman.
The Liberals and the Bloc insist the issue raises national security concerns, but the NDP say they are uncomfortable pursuing this line of questioning.
Some concerns are raised over the roll the Liberal Party, the Bloc and the media played in advancing and perpetuating the story.
