Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, and thank you, Minister, for being here.
I want to go back if I may, Minister, to what Mr. Casey was speaking to because I must say I get a little perplexed when I hear the word “warrantless” and “police” in the same sentence because it's just not true.
Is there volunteer information provided that police ask for, and if it subscribes within the law; yes, that's exactly what's happened. It's volunteered.
The other thing I want to say, Minister, was as an author to a Part VI investigation, I completely agree with you that oversight is ramped up significantly as the investigation goes on, right to a Supreme Court justice.
One of the things I wanted to ask about was about proposed section 487.0194, which falls into proposed subsections 487.0195(1) and (2), and that is with regard to the preservation demand, form 5.001; the information to obtain a preservation order, 5.002; followed by the preservation order itself, 5.003.
Could you tell the committee how those correlate to 487.0194 and what they are meant to do for the police because we used to use a preservation order, all the time, prior to getting the warrant.
