Very briefly, I'm very much a fan of the British model, the Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament, which has now been in existence for a number of years. Its powers were recently expanded.
If we were to adapt such a model to Canadian needs, it would not only fill a huge gap in the current accountability regime, which is the inability of Parliament to successfully scrutinize security and intelligence activities in this country, but it would also provide for a kind of strategic level look at the whole range of intelligence and national security activities, which is also currently absent from our accountability system, as Justice O'Connor understood in volume II of his report in the Arar inquiry.
