Mr. Chair, that's another very good question.
What I would say is that we are currently fulfilling that role with the Oceans Act as it is. We are currently supporting conservation protection at sea as they conduct their enforcement activities and their fishery patrols. We embark RCMP on board our vessels for the marine security enforcement teams, so we are already doing this. We already have these teams on board. Fundamentally, at any point where they need to conduct an enforcement action, they will do that. They will use our platforms essentially to launch their operations, usually in a small boat, a fast rescue craft.
Ultimately, this is business that we have been doing for years, and we are very comfortable with it.
Bill C-12 gives us an expanded mandate for security patrols and the sharing of information, most critically so that we can build maritime domain awareness in Canadian waters and share that with our partners.
