Veterans Affairs committee College at the same time as our committee chairman. Despite his dementia, it was clear during the conversation that he recalled, with fond memories, many of the same people and events that transpired some 40-plus years ago, but was totally at a loss to remember things his wife had said

Dr. Heather MacKinnon
Justice committee Okay. So they're not in jeopardy, it seems, for whatever reason, enforcement or otherwise. I would like to be clear. I think this was touched on. Your criteria did allow you to distinguish between street gangs and motorcycle gangs and more traditional organized crime

Stephen WoodworthConservative
Justice committee Thank you. I wanted to be absolutely clear. On your last page, under the heading of “Key Issue”, referring to limited research, one study profiling and one study following, those two studies you're referring to are the studies you're here to talk about today. Is that correct?

Justice committee I'm not clear on all of the aspects of post-release, other than that they would probably look at how long till they came back into custody and for what reasons. It could be for violations of various conditions of conditional release while under supervision. They would also look

Dr. Larry Motiuk
Information & Ethics committee Sure. What can you tell us about the differences, though? The reason I ask is because there's been a lot made of this declaration the President uttered in the aftermath of his inauguration. In all the reading I'm doing, I'm not quite clear on what it actually means

National Defence committee and a defence industrial strategy, the benefits to our economy and to Canadian business are quite clear.

Balanced Refugee Reform Act of the charter of rights and our international legal obligations. On the question of sexual orientation claims, I share the member's concern. Let me be clear.

National Defence committee that the Indian government is placing on the bidders. That's where the battle is going to be won or lost, and it's very clear that they have very defined national interests in certain areas, such as strategic communications, surveillance, and so on.

Procedure and House Affairs committee that the Prime Minister is attempting something that would be trying to avoid a clear vote on confidence or undermining the parliamentary privileges of committees, the Speaker can then advise the Governor General that there is a problem here. Again, as I'm saying, it's not a legal rule

Prof. Errol Mendes
Justice committee Thank you, Mr. Chair. Dr. Motiuk, thank you for being here. I'm going to go on a different tack, although those were, I think, very important questions from Mr. Ménard. I wasn't quite clear about the studies. I'm interested in the rate of recidivism between the two groups

Procedure and House Affairs committee decided—I think I was the first one who said—that there was a clear breach of privilege in the refusal to hand over on the detainees. I knew when I was presenting it that there was no parliamentary privilege on my behalf. So committees can do basically whatever they want. The only

Procedure and House Affairs committee It depends what comes out of that committee. As happened with the committee I appeared before, I think there was a general agreement among the people who were there that there was evidence of a clear breach of privilege, and that carried on into the House. Nothing was actually

Prof. Errol Mendes
Procedure and House Affairs committee was asked to give my opinion on whether there was a clear breach of privilege by the refusal to hand over on the detainee issue, and I felt that I could brave the risks of not having parliamentary privilege and appear before the committee, and I did.
