Mr. Speaker, the debate that is beginning will not be an easy one, but a difficult and sensitive one. We do not want laws that will infringe on our civil liberties but, at the same time, we cannot remain passive in the face of danger. Security and freedom must go hand in hand.
In Quebec some measures have been taken. A co-ordination committee was set up to deal with the threat to security. In fact, the television program “Zone libre” gave us a precise idea of the situation by showing the degree of penetration of these networks, which is really dumbfounding. Therefore, the Quebec government took action.
Does the federal government intend to set up a mechanism, a co-ordination committee to deal with terrorism?
