Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to continue along the same lines as Ms. Lapointe and talk about access to justice as it affects the RCMP.
I am sure you have read an article in the media lately about a motorist's challenge in Manitoba, north of Winnipeg. The staff of the Selkirk detachment, around St-Pierre-Jolys, is designated as bilingual. But there are problems with assigning bilingual RCMP officers there.
Do we have problems in Canada with RCMP services in both official languages? Our study is about access to justice in both official languages and actually, in a number of Canadian provinces, RCMP officers are the first people in the justice system we have to deal with. Have studies been done that give us a picture of the situation?
