Thank you, Mr. Virani, as well, for your comments and your engagement on this.
I would just say that of course there are many examples of federal statutes, probably the most famous being the Canada Health Act, that do touch on matters to do with health, and so I think the fact that the federal Parliament and members of Parliament are engaged with these issues to some extent already is reasonable and reflects the kinds of conversations we have with our constituents in terms of being engaged with health matters. But again, the reporting mechanism is left to the Governor in Council, so this is something that can be arrived at.
Obviously, on private members' legislation, there's no mechanism for us to be actively engaged in negotiations with provincial counterparts at this stage, but this is the sort of thing that is pretty common sense, and I think something significant is lost by removing this section. What is lost is a clear certainty that we will have an effective mechanism for identifying and prosecuting effectively those who are involved in this. So I think, with respect, that it is a workable mechanism and it is very much worth leaving in.
