Madam Speaker, I must say that shutting down the RCMP operations in any part of Canada is the wrong thing when we just have to look at the waste the government has shown us through the gun control bill and the HRDC boondoggle. There is no end to how the government wastes money. A better way to spend money would be to put the police officers on the street. That is how we will fight crime. The government just does not listen.
