But we do that all the time. We didn't need the Emergencies Act to do that. I think we have sworn in 400 to 700 every Canada Day, and it would last for a year. In fact, I used to joke that, if they moved Canada Day to one day earlier, I wouldn't have to do it twice. They didn't need the Emergencies Act to swear in police officers; it happens all the time.
