Mr. Speaker, we do understand the importance of supporting our police forces, the RCMP and border services, but we did not just realize it now. We have been doing exactly that for the past nine years.
We have exactly the same interests as the Americans, namely, to strengthen the integrity of our border and to enable Canadians to choose who enters Canada.
It is the same thing for the United States. We have a history of co-operating with the U.S. on a day-to-day basis. That is exactly what we will continue to do.
