Chief Larkin, this bill sets out very onerous legal requirements for an application to come in. A question was posed on whether or not there any other services that would cause disruption or concerns in the community. I could think, for example, of homeless shelters that sometimes are very controversial, or mental health drop-ins. Do you think they should be subject to legal requirements by the federal government? Obviously there are often municipal consultations, but would any of those kinds of services, in your opinion, require a federal legal requirement to be approved, which is what we are requiring here?
