Thank you.
First of all, I appreciate all of your input. It's been very valuable. This bill is incredibly important, and we can only learn through consultations with not only you but also many other groups and individuals.
My first question is whether any consultation was done before this bill was presented to the House of Commons by the author of the motion, MP Jolibois.
President Obed, was there any consultation? Is this the first time you've been asked your opinion?
