Mr. Mooney, you raised the issue of consultation in order to solve problems. Mr. Waldman also mentioned that the power to control is taken away from Parliament. When a bill is introduced in Parliament, there automatically follows a consultation, such as we are having here today in this Committee. As well, we meet with people because MPs are also contacted directly.
Once the power is given to the minister to issue instructions — there is not even a role for the governor in council — no consultation of any sort is required, whereas if the instructions had to be considered at least by our Committee, for example, some pressure could be exerted to inflect the decisions. That is the heart of the problem.
