Thank you. You obviously know quite a lot about this issue.
About two or three years ago, I think, there was an evaluation of the war crimes program in particular. One of the key findings was that the RCMP is extremely underfunded, under-resourced, so the RCMP's investigations could potentially feed all these parts of the program, in particular the investigation piece.
One of the points you made was about the importance of extradition, ideally being able to have some trials in the affected countries. If the RCMP had more resources to be able to identify some of the evidence against them, or even without that, the point I was trying to make earlier was that if we have discussions among members of Parliament and their staff, with their counterparts—and at the bureaucratic level as well—in looking at the justice options and negotiating at times for an extradition request, I think that's where the opportunity lies. My concern is that's not what we're seeing. We're just seeing deportations.
The media reports about the cases we've looked at indicate that when they are returned home simply on the basis of a deportation, these people are not being brought to justice. They are just being returned home. There are perhaps some challenges with the way that's happening. If they are implicated in atrocities, we are missing the opportunity to ensure justice is served. That's where I would like to see some more focus and emphasis and resources.
