I'd like to broach the matter of order-in-council appointments. In 2006, the government promised to set up a commission and appoint a chair to review appointments. However, nothing was ever done. At this time, the appointment process is rather tarnished. Perhaps we need to take a look at this. I know that several attempts have been made to do so in recent years, but I think we need to take a closer look at the way the order-in-council appointment process currently works.
