Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague on the other side of the House spoke about security, including security at the borders. He should also be aware of the security in airports. Members opposite surely heard this morning that security guards are complaining about having had no training.
Could the hon. member let us know what the government's position is in this regard? Would he support a request to provide training to security guards, the men and women working in airports or other locations, appropriate and standardized training for everyone, so that they are not put to work with a uniform on and told after two hours “You are now a security guard”. I am sure they heard about that this morning.
Especially in view of the new budget, I would like to know if the hon. member would agree that we should have more security in airports and elsewhere.
