Okay. We'll go to questions.
I'm not sure who's up first on the Conservative side. Who wants to go first there, Pat?
Just let me ask you this question, Mr. McGowan, first. I know the committee wants to move with this bill today. I think that's pretty likely. It's the third time that this bill has come forward in Parliament from three different members over the years, starting with the Liberals, the NDP and now the Conservatives. It's basically the same bill.
How difficult is it to fix? Can it be fixed? What kinds of amendments are required in order to cover off what you folks believe is a concern? If it were carried here today, the only amendments that can happen in the House, as I understand it, at report stage, are things that require a royal recommendation or a ways and means motion by a minister.
Could it be fixed at that stage if the committee were to carry it as is today?
