Security needs parliamentary oversight
My column this week on Loonie Politics looks at Bill C-622, which proposes to create a parliamentary oversight mechanism for national security agencies in this country. Many of the arguments against this bill have to do with the canard of duplication and bureaucracy, but I show why this really isn't the case in Canada.
