I would actually like to receive confirmation that the Commissioner of the RCMP will come to give testimony. It is very useful to have you here and you clearly play a very important role in terms of security, but the House of Commons Security Services are generally not responsible for this kind of problem. As you explained, this happens with external partners. I would therefore like to confirm that the RCMP official will in fact appear before us.
Do you think there is a way to train these people properly? The same thing happened the last time we had a problem. RCMP members are often not the ones working regularly on Parliament Hill, as you said earlier. When special events take place and the RCMP needs backup, I would imagine that the people asked to come are not necessarily assigned to Parliament Hill often.
Could the solution be to hold specific briefing sessions every time there is a similar event on Parliament Hill for the sake of those added to the forces?
