Yes, our police services across Canada have all sorts of tools they can use, and this is just but one of those tools, in co-operation with crown attorneys and others, they will be able to have access to.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3182106\" data-originallang=\"en\">I do believe that it is fair to assume that there will be an increase in demand for the program. Would the member not agree that it is a safe assumption to make and that there needs to be co-operation among the different levels of government on how they will best be able to meet that particular demand for resources, because I hope that we can avoid some duplication that way? </p>",

Effectivement. les services de police au Canada ont toutes sortes d'outils \u00e0 leur disposition, dont ce programme, auquel ils auront acc\u00e8s en coop\u00e9ration avec les procureurs de la Couronne et d'autres intervenants.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3182106\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je crois qu'on peut s'attendre \u00e0 ce que le programme fasse l'objet d'une demande accrue. La d\u00e9put\u00e9e estime-t-elle qu'il s'agit d'une hypoth\u00e8se raisonnable et que les divers ordres de gouvernements doivent se concerter pour d\u00e9terminer la meilleure fa\u00e7on de r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 cette demande accrue de ressources de mani\u00e8re \u00e0 \u00e9viter, je l'esp\u00e8re, les d\u00e9doublements?</p>"
