Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for appearing today.
I will be addressing my questions to you, Mr. Keon. First of all, thank you very much to your industry for the medicines you've donated to Health Partners International. They celebrated $40 million worth of medicines distributed to the world's most needy last year. I know that's in large part your industry. Even now they're delivering medicines to the Philippines. So thank you very much for that.
My question is also in relation to the definition and the suggestions you've made. I see by your brief...which I found quite disturbing, to be honest, as a lawyer as well, because of the changes.
My understanding, in relation to the definition in the current act, is that you are only making a suggestion that two words be deleted, in essence—three words, but only two different words—and in the new definition in Bill C-8, there are actually 14 words that you're suggesting that are different.
So there's quite a difference between the old definition and the new definition, and you're only suggesting a minor change to the old definition—a tweak, in essence—because of the case law that has taken place over the last how many years.
