It is concerning. We're not sure exactly where these cuts are going to come from. Right now, the component that I'm president of, the Customs and Immigration Union at the CBSA, is short between 2,000 and 3,000 officers just to keep our borders running. That's just to give you an idea of how bad the shortfall in staff is. I don't think our situation is unique either. To think of where those cuts are going to come from is extremely concerning.
