Mr. Cooper, there are two things that are incorrect with what you have just said.
First of all, that information was not sent to me and it was not sent to my chief of staff. You've incorrectly characterized that. It was sent to a secure terminal to which we do not have access. That was not the way in which top secret information was shared with the minister or the minister's office. It was shared more directly by the director. That did not happen in these circumstances, so your characterization that this information was sent to me is, quite frankly, incorrect.
However, I would also acknowledge, as the national security intelligence adviser acknowledged, and as I believe the director of CSIS acknowledged, that in this circumstance they did not do what was necessary to make sure that information was brought to the attention of the minister. For that, as the minister of public safety at the time, I do take responsibility. We've taken steps to remedy that mishandling of that particular information and the failure to ensure that it got into the hands of people who needed to see it.
