Thank you. I will address my last comment to our witnesses from British Columbia.
It is just a comment, but please feel free to respond, should you wish to do so. I liked the way in which you incorporated into your presentation the content of page 13 of a document called Stand Up for Canada, the Conservative Party of Canada's election platform. Given that the Conservatives wrote it, I would hope that they have read it! It speaks about strengthening the Access to Information Act.
This committee is being made to sit 29 hours a week on the pretext that there has been talk of a Federal Accountability Act for the past four years. You told us that there has been talk of reforming the Access to Information Act for the past 20 years. Surely this means that we should be moving ahead four times as quickly on reforming the Access to Information Act as we are on the Accountability Act. However, that does not appear to be the case.
You went through the Conservative Party's election campaign platform point by point. It is a very comprehensive document. If our committee had the time, we could surely benefit from going through the Conservative Party election platform point by point in order to improve the Access to Information Act. I would like to thank you for the clever approach that you took in making your presentation. We will endeavour to draw on it, in spite of the limited time available to us.
