Mr. Speaker, the fact of the matter is all provinces support crime control.
As a result of these court challenges the federal government will end up fighting these challenges using taxpayers' dollars, the same taxpayers' dollars which will be used by the provinces and the same taxpayers' dollars the federal government will need in its out of court settlements for the Pearson airport deal and the Airbus fiasco.
I ask the minister this. Have the court bills been tallied?
