Liberals and 2001 Anti-Terrorism Act
Liberal Party who introduced this legislation in 2001 are opposing as a party it now. They also look offended by remarks of PM S.Harper suggesting that partly their position could be explained by the certain personal connections: the father in law of one Liberal MPs was once a spokesman for Babbar Khalsa, a group officially recognized by the Canadian government as a terrorist organization.
I am not sure about this precise reason but Liberals had a lot of connections to different ethnic groups some of which were crossing the line between abroad-oriented political activism and support for terrorism. While leaders of LP probably are unaware about these links they cannot stop feeling that such links exist and will be emphasized by investigative hearings provioned by this legislation.
It is definitely shame that the majority of liberals are endangering the safety of Canadians to get some politica advantages.
