Thank you.
I'm going to focus on the national security intelligence information sharing. I find in your observations that there's been a very great concern about balancing privacy with public security.
All of us understand that the safety and security of citizens are the responsibility of the government and Canadians have to feel comfortable, but when you target a specific community because of events that take place in 2001, and you pick on those communities, you have indicated that there is a lot of intrusion. How do you balance that intrusion, and how does the information being shared between Transport Canada and RCMP work either to help or to hinder Canadians?
How has it impacted the rights of Canadian citizens? I can think of numerous examples. We had the example of Maher Arar, and now we have an example of a citizen sitting in Sudan who has not been able to get out because information was supplied by some Canadian body.
How often do you find, in your opinion, the agencies or departments hiding behind the security concerns and therefore not sharing information? How do we balance these things?
