Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the public servants who are here today.
I am just trying to understand why it would be better to include that in regulations rather than in the definition, especially in the part that refers to an isolated or repeated gesture. It can indeed be something that occurs just once as opposed to repeatedly. The seriousness of the incident also has to be considered.
The witnesses who appeared before the committee stressed that it can be an isolated incident. Whether a repeated event or an isolated incident, the seriousness of the act must be considered. The witnesses we heard considered it very important to include that in the definition, and that is why I am defending this point.
I would like to hear your thoughts on this. I would like to get a better understanding of why it would be preferable to include that in regulations as opposed to the definition.
