That should be the case, and if it were mentioned we would feel decidedly better. Unfortunately, certain provisions, among others in Bill C-51, do not comply with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Several provisions in some acts or bills disturb us considerably.
If this legislation expressly referred to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Canadian Human Rights Act, and international law, it could be interpreted in light of human rights. That is necessary, given the balance that must be established between security and the respect of human rights. As Mr. Neve and myself were saying earlier, this is already expressed in provisions relating to human rights.
