Thank you, Chair.
Thank you for being here, Minister.
One of the points in the budget that has been overlooked in the public commentary that has taken place is the move towards initiating a public consultation on the criminal rate of interest in the Criminal Code.
As you know, Minister, currently that threshold is set at 60%, a very high number that has hurt a lot of people. This is on installment loans and lines of credit.
I want to ask you about the consultation. What are your thoughts on it? I'd like to know what it would examine exactly, when it might begin, anything like that.
