Thank you, Mr. Chair. I thank all my colleagues for being back with us this Monday morning so that we can spend another week together.
I thank the witnesses and all of the people here. On behalf of my anglophone, Acadian and Brayon colleagues, and newly arrived New Brunswickers, I thank you very much for your welcome here in Montreal.
I'll begin with Mr. Dobie and Mr. Thompson.
Clearly, you've indicated to us that you feel there's inadequate consultation going on around this process, both because there's no specific alternative to present yet to Canadians, and the oversight of minority language communities is not mentioned as part of our mandate.
Do you have any advice on how you would recommend our process unfold, should we come to a specific recommendation about an alternative system to present to Canadians?
