I would like to give more clarification if I can. I would like the Minister to understand that I am not suggesting for one minute that we look at an alternative to the R.C.M.P. What I suggested yesterday, and I have tried to suggest again today, is where the communities do not have R.C.M.P., particularly in the small communities, will there be some consideration given to expanding the role of the by-law officers, so that they can provide some minimal policing duties? That is all that I am suggesting. I am not asking for sweeping changes in the policing aspect. This is what has been requested by me from the small communities.
