Citizenship and Immigration committee As to the number of investigations, I do not have those statistics. But since the Anti-terrorism Act has come into force, there have been 15 terrorist-related convictions.

Citizenship and Immigration committee Within Canada, certainly someone's citizenship or their origin...if they're a threat to Canada, they're a threat to Canada. We would investigate it with the same vigour as we would any other offence.

C/Supt Joe Oliver

Citizenship and Immigration committee I can only speak about convictions and publicly announced charges. I'm not in a position to give any details about ongoing investigations.

March 21st, 2013Committee meeting
C/Supt Joe Oliver
Citizenship and Immigration committee That would be very much a question of speculation on my part.
March 21st, 2013Committee meeting

C/Supt Joe Oliver
Citizenship and Immigration committee I think that's probably a question best addressed to the minister, to CIC, or to the sponsor of the bill.
March 21st, 2013Committee meeting
C/Supt Joe Oliver
Citizenship and Immigration committee I researched that, because I knew it was possibly going to be a question. The RCMP Act has provisions similar to those of the National Defence Act, which the commissioner....
