Mr. Speaker, this is a scary night because I agree with the member opposite. This really is a very scary night.
In all seriousness, I agree with him totally. The notwithstanding clause was put into the constitution for a specific purpose which was to cover an eventuality that could not be foreseen at the time. If we are ever going to use it, it must be used as an absolute last resort. I believe at some point it may be appropriate to use it.
In examining the entire issue of organized crime, it forms part of a whole national security issue. It is not just crime. It is a whole national security issue as well as a personal security issue. We must examine this in its totality to see what other solutions there are. Indeed there are many solutions totally apart from anything legislatively. I agree with the member completely.
