Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thanks to the witness for appearing.
Somewhere in your remarks, and I'll come back to the topic at hand in a moment, you talked about the lack of agreement on the causes of crime, which I maintain is probably one of the most important issues that we're failing to address.
What work has been done in that area?
Larry and I both come from the farm sector. We certainly know full-well that if you've got a problem, no matter what it is, you're not going to fix it unless you know the cause of it. If we could get at the causes of these issues, we'd probably be doing a lot more than trying to deal with them after the fact.
Do you have anything to express in that area?
