Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Professor Beare didn't have a chance to answer the question. I'll just remind you that if there is time and if anybody else on the panel can offer an insight, I would appreciate it.
You talked about the root causes. I assume you were talking about organized crime membership, or how an organized crime enterprise decides to go into sector A or industry B or community C. I'd be interested to hear if that's what you meant by root causes.
Also, at the end of your comments you talked about alternative measures. I think you meant mega trials, these big prosecutions that tie up huge resources, both police and prosecutorial resources. You talked about “alternative measures”, perhaps to organized crime prosecution, which in my province has led, in one case in New Brunswick, to our first mega trial. In a small province, it taxed the resources of the criminal justice system in a terrible way.
