I do appreciate the answer.
As you were saying this, it struck me why it is I'm struggling with this so much. It's because sometimes when the Liberal members are talking about how that's a regulation and this is the act, I'm starting to buy into some of the things that are being said.
It actually takes me back. If I think about acts in previous governments, the transparency act clearly delineated what the expectations were of members of the government.
I'll give you an example. If you serve as a cabinet minister, you can't lobby five years thereafter. That wasn't something that came in two years down the road when they figured out what they wanted to do. They set a clear and concise set of standards within the act itself. To sit here and say we're scared that we can't actually meet everybody's barrier-free
We're saying we don't want to set a standard on anything in case we miss somebody; the reality is that when you take that approach, you miss everybody.
I am struggling with this. I've listened. I've listened to what you've said. I've listened to what other members have said. I get it. I 100% get what you're trying to say. It's going to be constantly moving, so if we try to peg it down, we're going to miss people, as it's constantly moving. New technologies are coming forth. New ideas are coming out. Universities and colleges are doing new studies that are providing new information. I get it, 100%.
However, if we don't put the peg in somewhere—in here, and I actually do believe it's the right place—then we don't set the tone for the standards. That's a difficult thing to swallow when it comes to accessibility.
