    "content": "As I support this Motion and the appointment of the members, my appeal to the chair and the membership is that, as they undertake their functions, they should become truthful in whatever investigations they will undertake under Section 8 of the Act. We have had cases where this Commission – but not the current members - has come up with a report or recommendations which are not based on facts. Since the Constitution empowers the Commission to play a critical role in advocating for human rights, my appeal to the Commission and, particularly the chair, is to ensure that the Commission is really guided by the principles of law in executing its mandate under Section 8 of the Act. I, therefore, support the appointment of the members and also the rejection of one member, as is outlined in the Report of the Committee."
