That was a clear potential relationship. I'm wondering if two existing systems are applicable to this leaving-the-country issue or could be made to be. One is something I know almost nothing about, the advance passenger information, the passenger name record program. The second is the no-fly list. Could you tell us whether either could partly or more extensively be drawn upon as a way of looking for people leaving the country who might have been drawn to your attention earlier by CSIS or RCMP?
I wanted to turn to our friend Mr. Fadden with one quotation from his Senate testimony. He says that the “current structure of the no-fly-list program is such that you have to be a threat to aviation”.
That obviously doesn't fit perfectly here. He goes on to say that his “understanding is that officials are preparing a series of proposals for the ministers to try to make this list a little more subtle”, but that he does “not know where they are on it” .
I'm not assuming you have inside information on what cabinet is considering, but do you know whether discussions or studies are taking place on changing the nature of the no-fly list in relation to this leaving-the-country issue?
