Madam Speaker, our government will do whatever it takes to protect our borders and keep Canadians safe. Over the past year, ArriveCAN has played an important role in reducing the introduction and transmission of COVID‑19, and it is mandatory. Last week, I instructed the Canada Border Services Agency to be a bit more flexible with Canadians returning to Canada.

Madam Speaker, as I just said, we have always taken the steps that are necessary to protect the health and safety of Canadians throughout the pandemic, and especially now as we continue to study the new variant of concern omicron. It is essential that we continue to use tools, like ArriveCAN, that protect the health and safety of Canadians. My hon. colleague is worried about the holiday season. This government will always have the backs of Canadians to protect them and provide them with the supports they need so they can provide the gifts they want to their loved ones as we head into the holiday season.

Madam Speaker, I look forward to working with my colleague and all members in the chamber on this important issue. Throughout the election as well as now, we were and are committed to ensuring that there is an appropriate degree of oversight, transparency, equity and representation within the RCMP. I have already had a number of important discussions with the commissioner as well as with other senior members of her executive team. We are going to continue to work with the RCMP to ensure that we provide top, world-class law enforcement right across the country so that we can have public safety for all Canadians.
