I was in this room on that day with my colleagues, and that event is very real. It has been burned into my memory. I would certainly envision it as an act of terrorism as well.
In your testimony, sir, you stated that he applied for a passport in Vancouver and was told it would not be coming forthwith. He then made his way to Ottawa, and within a couple of hours of coming to Ottawa he went directly to the Libyan embassy and applied for a passport there. He was again told that there were discrepancies and that there would be a time delay.
In instances like that, are there mechanisms in place so that when an individual is not approved for a passport, that fact is communicated to law enforcement agencies or the RCMP?
