Mr. Speaker, with all due respect, since this is the same question, I will give the same answer. We have instructed our independent officials to do a review of this particular contract involving the RCMP. What is more important is that all members in the House understand that we have made investments to provide all the tools that the public safety community needs to protect our democratic institution.

Uqaqtittiji, I am glad to hear that the member is looking to work with other people on solutions that might work. Families are also calling on the federal, provincial and municipal governments, and the Winnipeg Police Service, to order an independent review, with support and access to information, to make a determination on the likelihood of the success of the investigation. Does the member support and agree with this call?

Mr. Speaker, previous speakers have talked about the lack of efficacy in spending on this issue and have alluded to how the government uses spending as an outcome, when we are in here, once again, six months later, having a debate about a tragedy that we should have prevented. I am wondering if my colleague could comment on some of the ideas that have been raised about having independent review boards for the monitoring of spending, to ensure that when the government is talking about spending, it is actually getting to the people who need it to prevent these tragedies.
