Mr. Easter, from my perspective, I don't see the government as those on the treasury bench only and on the other side. I see the whole thing as a government. Where I'm coming from as a common citizen we expect our government to do what is necessary as you recognize the threat. From my perspective, the threat is immense and it is growing and we cannot afford to be lax, given what is at stake and what harm can be done.
Yes, the government has recognized—all of you have recognized—that there's a necessity and that is Bill C-51. Now the question is, how do you go about improving it? I agree with you that the effort should be made to see the flaws and improve on them. If you agree that the instrument is needed, we are heartened because we feel the threat is immense.
