Mr. Speaker, I wish to apologize to the Members of the House for implying that all of them do not do their homework and that they all use information which is not factually accurate. However, I wish to point out an example of the reason for my concern.

There have been letters tabled from the union regarding the River Ridge issue. There have been letters from the chief of the Metis local of Fort Smith which have also been tabled. There have been statements recorded in Hansard, there are certain definitions which are used by the Member for Thebacha. For instance, she said at one point in her Member's statement on March 16, that there is such an institution as a maximum secure facility. The Member used it more than five times in her Member's statement. She went on to say later that there are three levels of facilities for housing young offenders, maximum secure facilities, secure facilities and open custody placements. At no time was the Member corrected, although in my responses I indicated there were only two. There is open custody and there is closed custody. I point to this because a member of the union from Fort Smith wrote a letter in the Fort Smith newspaper and uses some of this information, I feel, to perhaps mislead himself. For instance, he talks about a semi-secure facility. Again, there is no such facility or such classification. He also mentions that we are re-designating a facility. What we are doing, in fact, is giving it a triple designation.

That was the reason I raised this because we are starting to table letters from the union and people in the public who depend on the Hansard and statements made in this House to inform themselves and then raise concerns.

For instance, on March 18, the Member for Thebacha went on to say that, "It has always been my understanding that there are three categories of young offenders according to the Corrections Act." Again, the Corrections Act does not deal with young offenders. It is the Young Offenders Act which deals with them. I have had some concern about it and I do not know that there have been any corrections made of these statements.
