Thank you.
Thank you to all the witnesses for coming today. You brought up some interesting points. The finance committee will have to focus some more attention on it. Thank you.
A lot of the discussion we've had here has to do with the commercial context, obviously the shoplifting, and obviously everyone wants.... It's a cornerstone of the legislation that the police are the first line of defence against crime. Out of necessity, I believe, probably in a lot of cases security officers or designated personnel are necessary because the police are otherwise occupied. But what about the situation in more rural areas, where obviously because of geography, distance, limited resources, the police can't react immediately? Do you think the inclusion of the requirement that the person making the arrest reasonably believes the police officer cannot make the arrest because of circumstances is something that will cause citizens to behave, to not take on vigilante-type attitudes?
I will throw that open to each one of you.
