Thank you very much.
May I say to the members that they really want to check out some of the reports issued by the parliamentary committee? It's very interesting how they say that this point system is going to create big problems. It's kind of sad that those recommendations were not taken into account by the department and the parliamentary secretary at the time. Anyway, that's how these things go.
Mr. Perreault, the most difficult time I have as a member of Parliament is when somebody comes forward to me and they're under deportation orders, and there's essentially very little I can do. Some have had lawyers who missed notifying them of critical dates, times for appeal. Others had unregulated consultants.
So when we called for a consultant system to be set up, we didn't expect it to be perfect, but we expected it to work. On this, too, I have heard from a number of witnesses, which causes me concern, both in Fredericton and Quebec City.
Let me first ask you, what's the cost to belong, for a year?
