Thank you very much.
I just want to provide a little bit of a preface here, based on the comment that Ms. Hoeppner made earlier. I'm going to be asking some questions that are not based on a suspicion of CSIS, but on the idea that we have to maintain public support for a national security strategy and our national security organizations. To do that we have to have strong oversight. We have to have respect for the rule of law and respect for rights; otherwise you will lose the cooperation of the public. So it's not a case of our saying that we are suspicious of all CSIS agents as somehow being evildoers who have to be bound and constrained, but the necessity of maintaining public support.
I have two questions, if I can get them both in here.
The minister made reference to bringing in new legislation about leaving Canada for the purpose of carrying out a terrorist act. Do you have any information you could share with us, first on the timeframe for that legislation? Secondly, it's of concern to many immigrant communities if their rights to travel outside the country are restricted, and there is already a bit of fear that they might somehow be racially profiled and have trouble leaving the country as a result of their membership in a group. Do you have any information you could share with us now on the provisions of that proposed legislation, or review mechanisms that might be in place under that regime?
