Thank you, Mr. Minister.
Mr. Picard, let me give you an idea of the way in which we interpret Justice Noël's decision.
The service has a list of issues that can be raised when we go to court to get warrants. That means that the court has a number of issues about which it raises questions. We keep a list of all those issues. We go back to court to provide detailed explanations and we provide technical briefings. That is the openness that led to Justice Noël's decision in 2016. We have a kind of transparency and, in a way, partnership. Perhaps that is not the proper word, given that we are talking about a court, but the fact remains that we understand the obligations placed on the service and we work very closely with the court to try to address its concerns as best we can.
Recently, I have had the opportunity to sit down with the designated Federal Court judges and with other members of the judicial system. I gave them my view about how the service is going to behave in the future. To a large extent, I feel that a sense of trust has been rebuilt. The responsibility of keeping the trust of the court by being open and transparent towards it rests on my shoulders.
