We are not a backward country, but we are perhaps a little inconsistent. I repeat: in 1999, this very Parliament passed a bill that governs the private sector—this was the committee that studied it—and that requires that the legislation be reviewed every five years. Provincial legislation in Quebec also requires a review every five years. A number of other provinces—Alberta and British Columbia come to mind—have the same provision. It is quite common and we even have it in our own legislation governing the private sector.
