I think we're at that point and we've gone there because crime has changed.
By the way, I have also chaired the National Coordinating Committee on Organized Crime for five years and the Canada-U.S. Crime Forum for five years, and it was obvious that the type of crime that society is now confronted with has changed because of globalization and technology. It requires a completely different set of skill sets from the officers. They're long-term, complex, sophisticated crimes. Yes, we should look at that, otherwise you are going to be passing legislation in the expectation that it's going to be enforced and it won't be enforced. Those 7,000 officers in the RCMP in B.C. are accountable to the minister in B.C. In each of the provinces they're in, that's the warm body and accountability is to that person. That's extreme pressure.
Two-thirds of the budget is dedicated to contracting. If we don't get out of that, we will not be able to fight the new kinds of sophisticated crime that this country is confronted with.
