Thanks very much to both of you.
Thank you so much, Briana, for sharing your story, for your courage and for helping other families going through that. It takes a lot of strength to be able to do that.
I never lost a child, but my very close friend lost her nine-year-old. I was the person at the hospital with her. I was the person who had to stay with him. There was no way that she was going to let him go, so her husband took her home, and I stayed with Tommy until it was time for him to be taken out of the room. Everything you shared today took me right back to that. I took time off from work to stay with her and navigate through all those steps—talking to her employer and her husband's employer. They were in disbelief over what had just happened.
Thank you for doing this and for being that strength for other parents.
As you said, Gabriel, it's a project that goes across party lines.
Thank you to Blake Richards, who worked on this before, and to the others who worked on this before. It's so important that we get this done, get it done right and get it done quickly. If there are things we need to add or expand on, we can do that afterwards. We need to do it as soon as possible.
Mr. Pelletier, do you want to tell us a bit about the impact of Bill C‑222? How will the bill change what parents experience in terms of red tape and things that should not be asked for but are? I'm wondering if you could tell us a little about that.
Is there anything else you want to add that you didn't have time to say earlier about your proposed amendment?
