Mr. Speaker, I would like to make a few comments on my hon. friend's commentary. I want to congratulate him on supporting this bill in principle.
He made some comments that were directed toward the enforcement of this bill and ultimately how we make it function within our market process. He is likely aware of the integrated market enforcement teams that are being set up by the RCMP as a process of trying to put together a system that will adequately enforce these measures with skilled people who are up to date in the technology of the day and the ways in which one goes about this.
With respect to funding, under that initiative there would be $8.1 million spent in this fiscal year, or at least designated for that purpose. In the subsequent year there would be $13.2 million and $17.5 million in each of the subsequent three years.
If the member has any concerns about the fact that we are prepared to put our money behind the enforcement process, I think we are definitely prepared to do so. Does the member think that this is the right approach?
