Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd also like to thank Mr. Ross for his testimony.
Mr. Ross, you talked about a number of things in your opening remarks, and I was intrigued by two terms. We're discussing Bill C‑29, of course, but you she went upstream of that when you talked about the concept of reconciliation being used for political purposes, for example, and the fact that the very concept of reconciliation is being overused or not accurately defined.
On the one hand, how would you define the word “reconciliation” and on the other, what are the implications of reconciliation in concrete terms?
Could you also clarify what you meant when you said that the concept was used for political purposes?
