Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We knew that this was going to happen when we invited the public to provide comments from across the country. Even though the committee didn't have an opportunity to travel across the country, to go to the different coasts to hear from people, when we invite comment we should definitely take the time to hear in both official languages what those comments are. This is standard on every committee and has been the standard practice in the past, so we need to adhere to that practice.
