Minister, I have to say, the fact that no security review has been done is unfathomable to me.
Transport Canada plainly states that Canada does not have comprehensive legislation to manage the risks identified on this file and that existing oversight focuses only on “performance and safety rather than mitigation of national security concerns”. The example given is “unauthorized data access or surveillance”.
Why would Public Safety permit foreign-built ferries to be imported before the government closes this legislative gap? What do you have to say, sir?
