Mr. Speaker, this is a multi-faceted question. It is a good question and we have a good answer for it.
I might draw the member's attention to the fact that the Deputy Prime Minister is chair of the security committee of cabinet, which has been putting in place all our border security, airline security and all those responses to the attacks on the World Trade Center, long before the U.S. Congress passed its legislation to create the homeland security department.
This government has a good record in defending its borders, a good record in defending its airports and a good record in defending its ports.
