I support looking at affordability in the north.
There's one thing we didn't quite finish in the indigenous policing study. The Parliamentary Budget Officer was supposed to get back to us with some numbers on how we could potentially give some solutions around policing as an essential service. That's something we should look to finish and get some recommendations on before we end for the summer.
I am in agreement with a study on northern affordability as part of this. I also agree that Bill S-2 is a priority and that we have some things to finish off there.
Mr. Chair, if we can put it in your hands, I think we have a general consensus about what we want to do before the end of the summer. If you work with the parties and create a timeline to get back to us, I think we can trust you to figure out how to ensure that all of these things get resolved before the summer. We all worked very hard this term, and we all want to get back to our constituencies and do some of the good work we need to do there.
