Mr. Chair, it is important to be clear about what the Green Party and now the NDP are proposing because if this amendment passed, CSIS could no longer take measures to reduce threats posed by foreign-influenced activities or by domestic subversion. We'd be taking away important tools from CSIS to deal with an evolving threat. I don't think this would make sense to very many Canadians.
