Thank you, Madam Chair.
Congratulations, sir, on your nomination and thank you for your appearance before the committee today.
I was pleased to be part of a government that created the Public Prosecution Service and the role of director. It's been interesting to watch the evolution of that organization.
I have only six minutes, so I'm going to try to ask my questions kind of tightly, and hopefully I'll get a tight response.
For the role of the Public Prosecution Service in prosecutions under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, my understanding is that the service is responsible for prosecutions under the act in all provinces and territories, except Quebec and New Brunswick, where the RCMP is the police jurisdiction.
Is that correct?
