Mr. Speaker, I too want to congratulate our colleague on his first speech and his very first election. I welcome him to the House.
We have come to expect magic formulas from the Liberal government, even if the magic amounts to nothing more than window dressing and smokescreens instead of real results. I am curious, I truly wonder how the border can be strengthened and how new means and capacities can be provided in a context where there is a shortfall of 3,000 officers and no sign of hiring any time soon.
What are we actually talking about here?
