Thank you.
I disagree with the member from the Green Party saying that this bill will not do anything to keep us safer. We had very credible witnesses come from law enforcement, including from CSIS and the RCMP, and from Toronto, including someone with years of experience, decades, in security intelligence gathering. All of them said that the measures in this bill are needed. There were clearly legislative gaps that have been identified. All of those have been addressed in this bill and it's unfortunate that we keep hearing those same types of remarks from opposition parties.
With regard to this amendment, Mr. Chair, I just want to point out that the act has regulation-making authority that will allow the Governor in Council to make regulations pertaining to record-keeping on information shared under the act. Additionally, this amendment proposed by the Green Party would put a significant burden on institutions to provide some sort of a review and analysis function after the fact.
For those reasons, I'm going to disagree with the intent of this amendment and will be voting against it.
