Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to all our guests at the table and in the audience here. You're helping us out to understand this legislation.
The issue I'd like to be clear on is the tobacco labelling, I guess you would call it, or a new stamping that we're proposing in this. We're hearing from a lot of our colleagues. It's not too far from my area either, the issue of contraband tobacco products.
I need to understand what this legislation is actually doing in terms of stamping. I'm assuming it's helping in terms of countering that activity. What are your expectations based on the legislation? Why can't we do it through regulation? Why do we have to have legislation for it?
