Thank you. I have a couple of questions.

We've been talking a lot at this committee about a “competent person” and how that person would be appointed under Bill C-65. Both of you have talked a bit about getting independent people to look into it. What do you think the best process is to find that competent person in a way that recognizes what is perhaps a power imbalance in a situation? Also, how do we ensure there is diversity among the competent people were seeking in applying with this legislation ?
