Chair, I take exception to everything that we do to try to balance out the work of this committee getting called a cover-up. That is absolutely not the case. What we're trying to do is to ensure that the RCMP, as they have been so forthcoming, are able to continue to be forthcoming with the documents that they provide in a manner that they can actually provide them. It's very unfair for Mr. Bezan to accuse us of cover-ups for a very small amendment like this, which only limits the scope of it so that we don't have to call commissioners in front of Parliament and hold them in contempt, or whatever other game the opposition may want to play.
