I think what Diane is talking about is really an operational decision: that a judge can authorize CSIS to do what I think we all feel CSIS needs to be able to do to do its job. But that specific wording, I submit to you, Mr. Chair, is wording that is going to come back time and time again to haunt Canada in international forums, whether it's in the United Nations or wherever, to have the wording in legislation “without regard to any other law including that of any foreign state”. I can see that being used in legislation. I can see that being used time and time against us.
I agree with the fact that CSIS, and they have been doing that.... We're putting in legislation, to a great extent in accordance with the court rulings, what CSIS has already been doing. Yes, they need to operate in a foreign state, and yes, sometimes they may have to violate the law of that country, but that happens operationally in CSIS. To have those words in legislation, I submit, will haunt Canada down the road. You don't need it for them to do their job.
