That's a valid point, but I don't agree. I think it's our job to learn lessons and make recommendations around those lessons learned.
The reality is that this has been a painful experience for a whole bunch of people. I would argue the industry.... There's a lot of responsibility. There are some good things that have happened that need to be identified. I think it's important, from my perspective as a member of the committee, to support the good work that has been done by the Canadian Television Fund. That's reflected here. I don't find it strongly enough reflected in the narrative in terms of the people who have appeared.
I think there are lessons learned. We heard witnesses from across the country. I think we owe it to them not to take the position that somehow for us to exercise our right as parliamentarians runs the risk of adding fuel to the fire. I think that's unlikely. Quite the contrary, I think we should inform the debate--the public, the government, our committee--of what we've heard. Otherwise, they've come here for a lot of time and given us a lot of advice that we simply have not acted on.
This is not a criticism of the report. I think the report basically does frame the discussion appropriately. Now, as parliamentarians, I think we need to offer advice. This is advice that I support.
