Thank you, Ms. Grewal. I appreciate that.
Thanks to the witnesses for being here today and the previous panel as well. Your stories are very compelling. We have a lot of empathy for your stories, and obviously you're very proud Canadians. It's never been any other way for you.
Through you, Mr. Chair, I would tell the witnesses and the previous panel that appeared not to put too much stock in opposition members' comments, Mr. Karygiannis's comments, about the one-year RCMP or CSIS checks, in your cases. While I have a great deal of respect for and I am a friend of the member opposite and he does care deeply about these issues, yours are exceptional cases and I think you have to take the words...and I know there are a number of them--
