It's always a double-edged sword.
Remember, as forensic scientists we provide investigative aids to the investigator, and if that individual is not out there doing the work that they do—and, I might add, it is a lot of hard work and it's fine work.... The issue of science and, for instance, the national data bank is no excuse for not doing absolutely good police work.
I would like to think they're in tandem. The more we provide investigation assistance to enable those samples to come in, in a timely manner and provide the information back to them, the more we can help focus an investigation and provide significant assistance.
For the committee, my understanding is that there is going to be a speaker to this effect, perhaps from the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, on Thursday, and I think that's a very good question to ask them.
