Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I appreciate both parties being here for your testimony.
Mr. Blackwell, you have an extraordinary CV. I say that not only because I am impressed by but also because you don't seem to be a person who would waste time on any initiative that wasn't going to be successful. Yet there are over 50 recommendations that haven't really been attended to yet.
To judge by your closing remarks, you obviously feel that the goodwill is there. Is there a lack of resources? Is it simply a lack of legislative and regulatory rigour? Is the crime situation out of control? Is it all of the above? What's delaying the progress? Is there any way some of the human rights violations can be rectified?
