I find the recommendation of Mr. Blais to be very interesting. It seems to me that if we're going to make a recommendation to the minister or to the House about changing fees, it makes sense to me that we might want to study the subject first and examine what fees are being applied in all areas of the country before we make a recommendation to specifically eliminate fees in one part of the country.
I don't think members have really had an opportunity to determine the extent of the fees, what they're applied for, or how they relate to other fees in other areas. It would probably be valuable for us to examine those issues before we make recommendations in an ad hoc manner.
