That's a very good question.
I've had discussions with our colleagues at the RCMP throughout the province and nationally through this committee and then, of course, locally. I would suggest to you that this type of threat that we're seeing with terrorism, which a lot of people attribute to the watershed moment of 9/11, has really drawn on our resources. I know for a fact that whether it's the RCMP or whether it's locally, we've had to redirect resources from other things in order to address this ongoing and serious threat. Depending on world events, that's scalable. It moves up and down depending on what's going on in the world.
We've dedicated resources to counterterrorism and anti-terrorism, but have not been able to backfill or replace those resources behind that to deal with other, more traditional things, such as organized crime and other things that the police deal with, either within jurisdictions or federally.
Therefore, it is very much an issue and it's one of those things—to use the analogy, you can only spread the peanut butter so thin and then what happens when things start to fall between the cracks.
I'll turn it over to Laurence before I get on my pulpit.
