It can look at any activity in the Government of Canada. It can ask for any information within the Government of Canada. It is required by the draft statute to report at least once a year. It's entitled to report at any other time that it thinks is appropriate. If this committee finds something in the national security activities or architecture of the government that it thinks is wrong, either not effectively keeping Canadians safe or not respecting Canadians' rights and freedoms, then the committee is perfectly at liberty to blow the whistle.
The committee cannot divulge classified information, and I presume no one around the table would argue that it should. Classified information needs to be classified. But if members say publicly—and if you have seven MPs and two senators, it's certainly going to be public—that something here is wrong, even without divulging the classified detail, they can blow a whistle that will make it exceedingly uncomfortable for the government of the day. That whistle will keep being blown until the problem is solved. They have a bully pulpit like no other.
