Mr. Chair, my colleague and I have actually started to develop a witness protection list, so our suggestion is—we read the press—the RCMP, which is obvious, the Department of Justice, and anyone within the Department of Public Safety.
There is an academic at the University of Ottawa, Thomas Gabor, who is a criminologist. He has written a paper that talks about witness protection programs in other countries besides Canada.
Since I have the floor, may I also ask members to submit, again through Louise Hayes, your clerk, any witnesses you think should be heard from? As an example, there is a lawyer, Barry Swadron, who has represented a number of people who have been in the witness protection program and who have been very unhappy with it. He's someone we'll have on our witness list.
Your difficulty, of course, will be if you want to hear from some of those who have been protected. That's a serious problem, and I'm not sure into how much detail the RCMP will be able to go, because of the nature of the program and the protections with which it's surrounded.
