Right. Those of us who were in Ottawa witnessed a situation where 4,000 or 5,000 people were scared to leave their homes and couldn't go to work for a period of three weeks. I was less concerned about their ability to stop at Denny's in Kingston and more concerned about the people of Ottawa being able to remove themselves from their homes and go about their business.
You started your evidence today by saying that the Emergencies Act measures were welcome, I believe. Could you explain in further detail what you meant by that, sir?
