Thank you very much, Chair.
In discussion of the subamendment, through you, Chair, the NDP's original amendment is better. It is better, and I sure hope that the NDP does not settle for less in this case.
I just want to put on the record that it's frustrating for me, because I'm hearing a lot about moving things along—and we've heard this a lot, actually, throughout this study, since this has been in committee—and about working in collaboration and getting things done, but at what cost? That is my question, through you, Chair, for the NDP.
This NDP amendment is stronger than the Liberal subamendment and, through you, Chair, I would ask that our NDP colleague sitting at the table not settle for what the Liberals are wanting her to settle for. As my colleague Ms. Ferreri said, this language matters. The original amendment is very much stronger. It holds the accountability and helps with transparency.
At the end of the day, it's for the kids. This legislation is supposed to be for the children, for the next generation to come into this country and, through you, Chair, I'm just letting our NDP colleague know that her amendment is much better than this subamendment that's being offered by the Liberals.
Thank you.
