Thank you, and thank you to both ministers for being here.
By its nature, terrorism is somewhat different yet connected to criminal activity. The terrorist's real intent is to strike fear into people who are not necessarily the direct victims. They intend to cause some mayhem. I think that sometimes we mix up what we're trying to deal with, and we treat these issues in a criminal sense, as opposed to in a terrorist sense. There is a difference, and I think Mr. Cullen has rightfully made the connection that the security certificates are not directly related to these issues; they're really immigration matters.
Having said that, our borders are one of our major concerns, obviously, as regards products being brought in, or even products going out of the country being used to raise funds for terrorist activity inside.
Minister Day, very recently--perhaps this week even--the head of the CBSA made a statement to the members of the other House that it'll be three years before we have our border guards armed and the single, work-alone border crossings covered. Does that seem like a reasonable length of time, given the situation out there in the real world?
