Mr. Speaker, I am going to appeal to the member. As a former Crown prosecutor, he knows something about the independence of our institutions.
When the police take action, they do so without political direction or manipulation. The police make decisions. They then go to a court and ask for a search warrant. It is judicially authorized because it has charter protections.
That is something with which the member used to be familiar. I just wish he would educate some of his colleagues about the importance of these safeguards and why they exist in democracies.
