I have several comments with respect to that. First of all, the RCMP does have a unique arrangement with respect to staff representation; that is the program referred to as the SRR program, the staff relations representative program. It's unique in many aspects, but regular and civilian members of the RCMP elect their representatives, and we deal extensively with those representatives.
Employees of the RCMP are also free to form, and in some instances have formed, associations. They have the right to do that. There are current provisions in the RCMP Act. I'm not in a position to debate the various legal arguments with respect to the interpretation or constitutionality of those provisions, but the provisions on their face indicate that regular and civilian members are not at liberty to form a union.
