June Report: Enforcement Organizations and Mel Cappe

june report: The June 2017 report by former Privy Council Office chief Mel Cappe, now a professor at the University of Toronto, was obtained by The Canadian Press through the Access to Information Act, according to National Observer. Scott Bardsley, a spokesman for Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale, would not comment directly on Cappe's recommendations, but said the government is working on legislation to create an appropriate mechanism to review CBSA officer conduct and handle complaints. The new watchdog, the Canada Law Enforcement Review Commission, would scrutinize both the border agency and the RCMP, given the frequent overlap between the two enforcement organizations. The government is committed to ensuring that our border services are world class and worthy of the trust of Canadians. They collect, analyze and distribute information concerning people and goods at border points, air terminals and seaports. The border agency's thousands of employees manage the flow of about 100 million travellers as well as some 16 million commercial shipments entering Canada annually. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
