Thank you very much for your comments.
We have members of the judiciary on that committee; in fact, they will chair that committee. I think that's a healthy component of the process. I believe that members of the police establishment will make a positive contribution. I don't see this as a group of individuals who are at odds with each other. I have known crown attorneys in my life. I've known judges. I know members of the defence bar, and I know members of the police establishment. For the most part, and almost invariably, they have the best interest of the judicial system at heart. I'm sure you are aware, as I am, of police forces that have innovative concepts in dealing with the difficulties they experience on a day-to-day basis. I don't look at it that they are at odds with any particular component of the judicial system. I firmly believe that the different components involved with our judicial system are there for the best interest of the rule of law and our judicial system in this country.
I believe you will see that and that you will approach me some day and tell me you think it really worked out well to have members of the police community, that they made an outstanding contribution to the process, and through that process they made an outstanding contribution to their country. I look forward to that opportunity.
I say to please keep an open mind about this decision that has been made, because I think it's in the best interest of the administration of justice.
