Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Public Safety committee Absolutely, and that was my initial point. We're more than willing to look into any situation that could cause a security concern; what we have to do, though, is not simply accept it, but verify its accuracy, reliability, and validity, and deal with it from that point on.

Public Safety committee I think the answer is pretty well yes to all. We all have a responsibility for public safety, public security, and it could come to our attention in a number of ways. It could come to our attention through a media article that could be completely false and we could check it out a

Public Safety committee As a background investigation unfolds and you scratch and something comes up, you may decide to look a little deeper and interview a second or third person until the person conducting the interview is satisfied that he or she has canvassed all possibilities. The “may” may also de

Public Safety committee I'm not aware of that. You'd have to ask either PCO or the Department of Public Safety.

Public Safety committee It would not be appropriate for me to speak about this specific case, as it would put the integrity of any action that we take in jeopardy.

A/Commr Raf Souccar
Public Safety committee Once again, you're specifically asking us with respect to our role on a very specific matter. What I'm suggesting to you, Mr. Dosanjh, is that whether or not we've had any role to date would be inappropriate for me to comment on, as it may affect the integrity of what it is that
