Mr. Chair, I have a great deal of respect for the member opposite who is the chair of the justice committee.
There has been some discussion recently, after 9/11, about the role of the RCMP in combating terrorism and some suggestions that they may be able to perform the role of providing security for the country in that regard if we were to re-merge CSIS with the RCMP under one chain of command.
I wonder if he has any thoughts on the viability of that and whether it would be an effective way of dealing with that problem.
