Mr. Speaker, it has been clear from Donald Trump's intervention on this, in terms of the tariff, that it was drugs and crime coming from the Canadian border. The member for Carleton was part of the Harper administration and sat at the cabinet table. Even when I asked him earlier this evening, he still had no regrets about cutting 1,100 members loose who were doing intelligence office work, which was actually on the front lines and going to work with the United States law enforcement agencies.
There were sniffer dog teams that were cut under the Harper administration, with the member for Carleton at the cabinet table, and there were also frontline workers. This is not my opinion. This is the opinion of the workers from there, who have done that.
Why was axing the officers a good plan by the Conservative Party? What are they willing to do now to make those numbers up? They recently voted against the CBSA stocking back up on officers again.
