Again, I have to be a little careful. I was asked this question yesterday, Mr. Shipley. As the minister, I do have a responsibility to leave it to the police of jurisdiction and the exercise of their discretion to determine and investigate criminal activity, so I avoid pronouncements in defining that activity in respect to the Criminal Code. I think it's very appropriate that I be careful in doing that, because I do not want to interfere with the operational independence of both the police and our prosecutors. At the same time, that was terribly unsafe, deeply concerning. I have confidence in the police to deal with it appropriately.
