Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Before I ask my question, I would like to tell the Bloc members here that the responsibility of a bill, an amendment, and everything falls on the government, not on the agency. The agency implements that, so for you to go ahead and ask them why you didn't comment on it.... It's our responsibility.
It's also quite interesting that for the last thirteen years the Liberals were in power here, they never brought out any legislation or anything to do that. Now, suddenly, they're coming out with this legislation, and yet for thirteen years, with four CIDA ministers that have gone through, never once did the Liberals come out with anything.
