I would agree that
the threats, in terms of cybercrime, are constantly evolving. It's therefore important that government and RCMP systems and structures be flexible and responsive to new threats.
What I will say as the person who right now is charged with putting together the new unit is that we did a lot of consultation, both with police services and with the private sector, to really understand how, particularly in the private sector, they are addressing this threat from a cybersecurity perspective. One of the key take-aways we had was that you have to constantly evolve.
We have the ability in building this new unit from the ground up to really push an innovation agenda and build a culture of being adaptive. We've even had success in terms of the funding, the number of positions we've been approved to have and ensuring we have enough IT developers within the unit to be able to change the IT system. If a new threat comes on the market and we need to very quickly change the public reporting systems so that Canadians and businesses can report it, we've accounted for that.
It will constantly be a challenge to try to even just keep pace with the cybercrime environment. From a culture perspective, we're going to do all we can to really make sure that it's not a bureaucratic structure that can't respond.
