Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Welcome, Minister. I have a couple of questions that only you could answer. The first one is of an international nature.
The RCMP not only has a great reputation here in Canada amongst Canadians, but also internationally. We have a number of partnerships, not the least of which is Haiti and Afghanistan, where we're training policemen.
I'm wondering, with the abundant coverage that has been applied to this issue, if you've heard from any of our international partners as to whether they have any concerns with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
