Alistair MacGregor at the Public Safety and National Security Committee

Thank you, Chair.

I know there were some discussions with colleagues, so I am expecting a subamendment. Before we get to that stage, I'll just say quickly that we did hear from a variety of witnesses who expressed a desire to see the appointment of the commissioner to be a little bit more detached from relying too much on the Governor in Council. It's the same process as would be in place for the appointment of the auditor general.

I note there are some remarkable similarities with CPC-3 right behind it.

I'll leave it at that and see what my colleagues have to say.
