Ryan Leef at the Public Safety and National Security Committee

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to both of our witnesses.

Mr. Pecknold, you mentioned in your opening remarks that you were pleased to see a broadening of the scope of who would be admitted into the witness protection program, and you particularly touched on the folks involved in youth gang violence.

I'm wondering if you can recall a time in your province where anybody has been denied access to the witness protection program based on the type of crime they've been involved in.
