Thank you, Mr. Chairman. As I have told this House, I think it would be nice if we could have detachments in every community. Certainly it's something that I would like to see, but, to this point, the government hasn't been able to afford to proceed that way.
For instance, in Sachs, as I said this afternoon, I think there's a strong argument to be made for sovereignty as well, making sure that Canada has some way of flying the flag. I think it's important to have RCMP in communities, not only for community safety but for a range of reasons. We would certainly like to be able to do it, but I don't think that we would be liable in a situation where we know that there isn't an RCMP and we are doing what we can to provide the coverage that we can. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
