It does not allow that. One has to be convicted before it is allowed. That is what I read in the bill. You have to be a one time criminal before you can be asked to submit a sample.
We are debating whether or not it is common sense. To me it only makes common sense if we can prevent an offence. I cannot see any harm. When the RCMP suspects somebody or when law enforcement believes it should have the right, they should be able to take that DNA sample and put it in the bank. The way I read it, this bill does not allow that.
We will see during the debate today that the Liberals will try to brainwash us. They will try to put us into a nice comfortable mood and say that this is a bill everybody should support. We support some of it. When the justice critic objects to certain clauses, I support him because he is dead right.
