That gets right into my next question.
I talked about border vulnerability. My riding of Abbotsford—South Langley is a prime example of that. It's right next to a border crossing. I have a border crossing in Abbotsford. I have another border crossing within Aldergrove, and right next to my riding is Surrey, where there's another border crossing touching our Langley-Surrey border entry.
I've been talking to officers on the ground, and the Abbotsford Police Department specifically has mentioned to me the spike in the number of operations they've had to investigate, right next to the border, of people who are illegally crossing the border, and that they need to beef up security because our borders are vulnerable. That's what we are hearing from the Abbotsford Police Department and from the RCMP in Langley as well.
If and when these officers are actually deployed, how will they be distributed? When we look at Canada as a nation, our provinces, the province of British Columbia and my riding and community of Abbotsford—South Langley, what are the criteria you are using to decide which officers are sent where, and how are the Liberals choosing to prioritize officer deployment?
