I hope I have a bit more time, Mr. Chair.
From a first-term MP's perspective, as I see things work, I think this is a direction we have to take. We have to stop thinking that we just need to add more staff and more staff to take care of the need.
I want to switch gears to what my colleague Mr. Jean was driving at in terms of a “common standard” card, something that does the pre-screening and moves the security back--away from the airport, really, in your case, or, in our case, away from the border. The intelligence that our law enforcement community has about people, way before they ever even decide to travel...and how you integrate that into something. One of the things that a number of jurisdictions are working on is an enhanced driver's licence, as an easier way, perhaps, to get that information about the individual and put it into the process of getting a driver's licence. It may not equate to an interview through the NEXUS process, but at least it gives you another layer before they even make a decision to travel.
Do you see anything coming down the line or anything in best practices in other jurisdictions that, to your minds, our government can learn from?
