Public Safety committee  I cannot tell you what the consensus of the committee is in that regard, ma'am, because we report to a cabinet minister. You would have to ask him what the consensus on that is. We have not met recently.

Public Safety committee  I'm sorry, but I am bound under a confidentiality agreement to the minister. You would have to ask him that question.

Public Safety committee  Continue, please.

Public Safety committee  What's the question?

Public Safety committee  Yes.

Public Safety committee  Infrequently.

Public Safety committee  Now, that's coming as quite a high compliment.

Public Safety committee  Yes, absolutely.

Public Safety committee  Absolutely.

Public Safety committee  No, sir.

Public Safety committee  I'm aware that this might be hard for you to understand, but I was acting as an advocate for Canadians.

Public Safety committee  No.

Public Safety committee  Yes.

Public Safety committee  I would support any move that provided for public safety for Canadians without unduly restricting people who are legitimate.

Public Safety committee  I believe I stated that I would support any move that didn't compromise safety.
