Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Pictou—Antigonish—Guysborough. The government is not taking $83 million away from the RCMP as was proposed by the hon. member's party.
In fact the government had to adjust the financial mess that was left by the Conservative government. There were no resources for anybody. That is why, after very careful progress by the government, we are now able to supply the RCMP and other law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to do their job.
