That's correct. It just establishes that as parliamentarians, we have a need to know. I've laid out the historical examples. In particular, the one that's most relevant and that we're all facing today is the foreign interference side. We need to be able to take this seriously.
This is a pet peeve of mine going back decades—long before I was elected. Canada is terrible at.... We overclassify things. We do not understand...we pay lip service to national security.
The first step to rebuilding that trust in our democratic processes is getting those of us who represent the Canadian populace, i.e., elected members of Parliament and senators, to have a better understanding of the threats we face because there are tough decisions.

My bill only does that first step. It doesn't guarantee you have access.
