Mr. Chair, I appreciate Mr. MacGregor's comments, and that is the sole reason I'm imploring this committee and our colleagues across the way to consider it, and why I said earlier that either it's a priority or it isn't.
As I said earlier and as Mr. Hanley mentioned, as a committee, our legacy could be that we adopted a piece of legislation, that we got it back to the House and that we passed it unanimously. For the very first time, Canada could have a piece of legislation that calls on the government to develop a national brain injury strategy, which I think is so important. It has never happened before. Through successive governments, it has been asked for. It's not the first time it's been asked for, but it is the first time it's gotten to this point, where we have a piece of legislation that, by all appearances, has unanimous support.
I would implore our colleagues across the way, in the spirit of collaboration—and perhaps Mr. Naqvi will see his way to withdrawing his amendment—to keep it at a year because, if it is a priority, the government.... I'll say it again. Whether it's this government or the next government or whoever, if it's a priority now, when we're all saying that it is, let's get to work and get it done.
