Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I am really sorry for our witnesses, because they did not have sufficient time to examine the amendments to all the bills that we are studying. I would also like to point out to our witnesses that, at a previous meeting, one of the committee members tried to suggest that our current way of working amounted to splitting this monstrous omnibus bill in order to be able to examine the various parts separately. However, that is absolutely not the case.
Mr. Schwartz, my question is for you.
Since the omnibus bill itself has 40 clauses that amend the Industrial Design Act alone, do you think it should have been examined separately? That way, the government would have had to address the opposition's requests. Should the bill be split to conduct a separate review and address the concerns that you have expressed this morning?
