I've spoken to the commissioner, and it was the first time that I had spoken to her. I don't know her at all. I don't know of her either. But I was impressed by the fact that she recognized the problem. She recognized that there had been a lack of leadership, and she told me of her willingness to address all of these issues and of how she was trying to set up a stronger support for herself in the central administration and even in the supervision of the different districts—the big districts, like the provinces. In that sense, there was a better understanding, I think, within the RCMP of what has to be done.
