Again—I'm sorry—I'm just short for time so I have to be fast here.

Why would the Prime Minister do that in the House of Commons in this scenario? Why wouldn't the RCMP do it? Who made the decision that we were going to talk about it in the House of Commons, because we talked about the political sensitivity regarding this?

We still didn't have the information out of the U.S. at this point in time, so why was the decision made to do it through the House of Commons and not through a press release or a media conference with the RCMP?
