The main purpose in looking backwards at anything, I think, is to see our way forward.
I think it's fair to say that the RCMP, like other organizations, such as the Canadian Forces, have over the past number of years been undermanned, underfunded, and overtasked. In a situation like that it is natural that experience levels decline, and it's probably natural that mistakes are made. Certainly mistakes were made in this case.
It's obviously a very subjective question for a very subjective answer, but how much impact do you think the long-term undermanning, underfunding, and overtasking had in mistakes that were made in this particular case?
