Madam Speaker, I would like to thank the member for Kingston and the Islands and also the member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan. At lunch today, we had a brief conversation about the independence of the Senate, the independence of the judiciary and the Supreme Court. This is another case where we need a separation of politics from correctional services through the order in council process, and the independence of that process, so that we are not getting political people put in the place to make decisions relating to the treatment of people under judicial care.
Could the hon. member discuss the importance of the separation of the political process from the judicial process?
