I'd like to talk about that. Private Vincent was killed here in the Montreal area and Corporal Cirillo was killed in Ottawa two years ago. So-called experts say that if they'd have had the powers back then to detain, Vincent and Cirillo may still be alive today. You talk about some terrorist plots solved or that didn't happen. Just recently in Strathroy, Ontario, the powers that allowed the police to get that guy before he did something were in Bill C-51. So I don't buy your argument on that, in a respectful way.
Moving on, you quoted terrorism threats, and you mentioned some other events where numbers of people are killed. An airplane crash, car accident, or whatever accident is exactly that: an accident. Terrorism is no accident.
To go back to your point about holding a suspect for a period of time, I believe you said a week or more, how do we keep that identified threat off the street if they can't detain them? We've already talked about times when they knew a person was a threat; because they didn't have the powers to pull them off the street, the crimes were played out.
Perhaps you could answer that.
