Okay, I accept that.
As a follow-up, we've had witnesses on other issues, and countries that have experienced a terrorist attack have a world view that's vastly different from what you just shared.
Canada has fortunately been spared from a severe terrorist act. We obviously controlled one with the Toronto 18, and we've controlled several situations, but I take a little issue with your minimizing it, and I must say I take issue with something else you shared with us today, when you compared where we are today in 21st century Canada to the World War II war measures act that Japanese Canadians experienced. I can't imagine, nor could I imagine anyone on this panel or in our society today ever imagining, that a law like this could lead to an act like that at any point in our future.
Your comments specifically were that this path will be similarly abused in the future, and you compared it to the Japanese situation in World War II. That view of where terrorism is today and of how we control terrorism is something I don't think a lot of Canadians would accept.
I'm interested in the commentary that's gone on today over Professor Forcese's observation and analysis that there is a gap, albeit small, but that there is a gap. All of the witnesses have heard that today.
My number one question, for any or all of you, is this: do you agree with that analysis? That's my number one question.
For the sake of time, my number two question is this: if you do agree, how would you propose to fill that gap to make sure our country doesn't have the security risk this gap presents?
