The RCMP is an independent agency of the government. They report through Public Safety, and I have very limited direction in terms of operations. I have every confidence in the commissioner and every confidence in the organization that the recruitment...and the commitments they made to the Auditor General and the commitments they made to me are fulfilled.
We have the resources for an additional 1,000 RCMP personnel for federal policing, and that plan is something I had direct oversight over. I'm absolutely confident that they will be able to implement the recommendations they have given me.
