We may remember that these were the provisions turned down by the opposition last year, but we are committed to giving law enforcement agencies the tools they need to fight terrorism in this country.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"755197\" data-originallang=\"en\">I know that the justice committee is going to be very busy this fall, so I think it is very appropriate that this be introduced in the Senate. The bottom line is that we will not give up the fight against terrorism in this country.</p>",

Vous vous souviendrez peut-\u00eatre que l'opposition avait rejet\u00e9 ces dispositions l'an dernier. Nous sommes cependant d\u00e9termin\u00e9s \u00e0 donner aux organismes d'application de la loi les outils n\u00e9cessaires pour lutter contre le terrorisme dans notre pays. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"755197\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je sais que le Comit\u00e9 de la justice sera tr\u00e8s occup\u00e9 cet automne. J'estime donc qu'il est indiqu\u00e9 de pr\u00e9senter ce projet de loi au S\u00e9nat. Ce qui importe, c'est que nous ne baisserons pas les bras dans la lutte contre le terrorisme dans notre pays.</p>"
