To put it simply, it's all of the above. Canada was a world leader during the combat mission when we were there. We created a super deputy minister and we had an interdepartmental task force that actually harnessed the power of a whole-of-government team. It actually brought tremendous strategic credit to this nation.
When this crisis was unfolding right in front of our eyes, we then urged the government, as we do now, to create an interdepartmental task force with one leader. There has to be one minister that has the pre-eminent authority and responsibility to manage across the different departments the needs of IRCC, Global Affairs Canada, Safety, and Defence and the resources necessary to pull these Afghans out of the country and back to this country safely so that we have the right people.
We need to repeat what we've already done in the past. Over.
