I'll go to you in a second, Mr. Slinn.
If I can just share a couple of thoughts from a preamble perspective, I want to thank all of you very much for being here. I think it's really powerful when people are able to turn personal pain into public advocacy. As parliamentarians, we need to hear your stories so that we can act on the insights that you share.
I know there are many more people who have these kinds of experiences of pain and who, for very understandable reasons, are not able to bring them forward or are not comfortable in bringing them forward. I know that all of you represent many others who would like their stories heard but are not able to share them.
I do want to thank my colleague, Blake Richards, who's subbing in at this committee. He's been leading on this issue for 10 years in Parliament.
I think the partisan aspects of this place get a lot of attention. They say sometimes that when there's conflict, that's what gets the attention, but this place is at its best when we can build on each other's work—when there's a good idea that comes from one party and then someone else takes it a bit further and someone else takes it a bit further. In reality, that's how we make the country better.
Thank you for mentioning motion 110. That, I think, was pivotal to starting this.
I wanted to ask a practical question around the application of this bill in Quebec. I don't know if anyone can help me with this, but my understanding is that Quebec has a different parental leave system. I wonder if there's anyone who can clarify the details in terms of how this bill would apply in the context of Quebec's distinct system of leave.
