When you attack an organized crime group, whether it be the Hells Angels, the mafia or street gangs whose members' names we know, as you said, and we decide to start an investigation, our evidence obviously has to be bullet-proof at all times. That's one of the reasons why now, when a long-term investigation begins, regardless of the organization, a prosecutor is assigned to it from the very start and helps police officers prepare their evidence so that it's solid at the outset. That's a long-term investigation. Obviously, the laws give us certain powers, but they are always limited.
As I've always said, the key to the success of investigation are the informers. Here again, the work with informers is a long-term effort. Thanks to whom have we just arrested some 110 Hells Angels for the first time? To at least one member of the Sherbrooke chapter of the Hells Angels. Whether you like it or not, even if we know it all, there has to be an accumulation of evidence. But that takes time and it's complicated. The more complex the organization is, the more complex the investigation will be as well.
Obviously, it takes money and staff, as we've said. There also have to be laws enabling us to get to the bottom of things. Yes, that is costly. When you stop these people and they're convicted, I think you have to strike two major blows: leave them in prison for a long time and make them pay back the profits they've made, rather than simply use Revenue Quebec to go after a portion of those profits.
