If I could just take two seconds in response, the addition of Canadian authorities' monitoring is not something you will find under international humanitarian law. It's something additional that the government has put into place.
With respect to the question of the jurisdiction, it's clear that torture is a grave breach. It's clear that it is subject to potential penal sanctions. It's clear that it's prohibited and outlawed, and there is a jurisdiction under the National Defence Act that we incorporate—for instance, subsection 269(1)—in regard to torture. In fact, a Canadian Forces member has been prosecuted for torture in the past under the military justice system, and there's been a prosecution for torture under the civil justice system in Canada.
So the potential is there, but of course that would only happen after following all of the mechanisms that are in place with respect to a proper investigation, where appropriate, and where each functioning actor within the justice system carries out their responsibilities. And it's the same in the military justice system as the civilian criminal justice system, in that those actors are given independent roles to ensure there are checks and balances in the provision of those roles.
