This is my thing, I just want an explanation about why it's such a bad thing. Mulcair seems to have a very strong opinion that this would result in PP being told things that he should be talking about during question period or whatever, but then being required to keep quiet about them for security reasons. Contrary to the other posters dismissing his views, I actually have no trouble believing that Mulcair knows how this works and has a perfectly cogent point to make... So explain all that in detail. Where's the newspaper article I can read that sets out the case for why PP and Mulcair are right about this? Where is the PP written statement that goes through why a security clearance can be used in a political / strategic way to undermine the opposition leader's ability to do his job? I'm willing to read it and I'm willing to be convinced! Just convince me.
