I think you have the opportunity to do both, frankly, the reason being that you have the ability to amend the portion of the pension, the RCMPSA, because it's before you here. All we are requesting is that you do that under the RCMPSA, which means that the service in the force.... As you can see, Bill C-18 makes reference to the RCMP, that service in the force, service dans la gendarmerie. All the commissioner has to say, in his own mind, in the definition of “member of the Force”, under the RCMP Act, is that those people include also the six months....
All I'm saying to you is, don't lose the opportunity to include it now. And if they are serious, as Mr. Cape is saying, they will do it within a matter of time. Therefore, your work will have been done already. That's not an issue to me. What we are saying is that you will be able to fix at least something in the RCMP pension, a cap, which, according to my reading, will never be put into effect for two or three years. So a person who is retiring will not see that day. We're not complaining about these people, but at least you'll have the 10,000 people who will think about the service you've done, about starting the process. That's what we're asking you for, to start the process regarding the RCMP Superannuation Act, because it won't change the RCMP Act. By having the definition of those cadets in there, that will start the process of having the RCMP do what Mr. Cape is trying to say. They move ahead and do it.
Again, I submit to you that service in the force, which is under the RCMP Act, will come under that heading.
