You and members of the Senate, not public opinion, will decide whether or not to renew my term. I personally review all the files that are before me with rigour.
With regard to the nine offences you’re referring to, I have no idea who and what your correspondent is talking about. As soon as there's reasonable doubt that an offence has been committed, I refer the matter to the RCMP. I sent sixteen files to them. So I take that seriously.
I can say that among the files I sent to the RCMP, the degree of seriousness of the offences varied. Sometimes it was a person who didn't file a communication report. If there's an offence, I refer the matter to the RCMP. However, I'd like to have the discretion to determine whether I should make a public report, instead of sending the matter to the RCMP, because some offences are more serious than others. Currently, any potential violations that I see are referred to the RCMP.
