Thank you, Mr. Chair.
To the RCMP and all of the law enforcement community, let me add my thanks to everybody else's. What you did in Ottawa—all of us were there, and we witnessed it—was truly remarkable, and you did it safely.
I'll pick up on something that Mr. Fast was just addressing. My thinking is similar to his, but I come at it from a slightly different perspective. Would you agree with me that the function of the police is to make the community safe, sir?
