I think that Mr. Ménard has raised a very important point. We have heard presentations from the Minister of Justice and his officials, and they have assured the committee that the part of the bill relating to the previous Bill C-27 is constitutional and in accordance with the Charter. A number of witnesses have told us that they believe that it is not in accordance with the Charter, and that there may well be a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of that section.
If the committee is not able to find a constitutional expert who could talk to us about that question, I ask, as Mr. Ménard has done, that experts from the Department of Justice come here and respond point by point to each of the questions that have been raised by other witnesses about the constitutionality of this part of the bill.
