Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Madam Lynch, and to your colleagues for sharing your time with us today.
Madam Lynch, let me speak as just an individual Canadian. Forget about the fact that I might be a member of Parliament, other than it gives me the privilege of being able to ask a question.
I think most people are looking at this and saying, you know, here's somebody in human rights who is going to tell us whether there's been a violation of human rights as we go through the application of measures that are designed to protect us: would she not have to be an expert in the application of those measures before she offers an opinion on whether our rights have been or could be infringed?
