We don't need a bill to create a strategy. That falls under federal jurisdiction.
As Ms. Fortin mentioned, there is a timeline built into the bill. For example, in two years, we have to create a strategy, and in five years, we have to report to Parliament. I think that while we don't need a bill to create the strategy, a bill gives us structure and guidance as to what needs to be included in the strategy led by Parliament. That also includes requests for consultations and things like that. It provides a framework for the strategy directed by Parliament.
