Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Bezan, congratulations on your bill. Thank you for advocating human rights and the safety of Canada and Canadians through your continual efforts up until now.
One of the major concerns for Canada's national security is foreign interference. This includes the work of foreign adversaries influencing our system of government and intimidating people on Canadian soil, and even the threat of sleeper cells, which may have infiltrated communities across the country in preparation for committing violence, intimidation or other crimes. Many of our adversaries, including China and Iran, among others, may seek to do harm to Canada.
What role do you foresee for this important legislation you have introduced in addressing these concerns?
