You're all very sweet. Thank you all so very much.
Since we seem to have this increasing speed to deal with this bill.... We have a memo that says we may have to put in our amendments as early as the coming Wednesday.
To any of you at the table, do you.... I'm glad we're dealing with Bill C-8, not to go on record as going the wrong way, but I see health and safety concerns being raised. I also see opportunities to talk more about a simplified procedure. Otherwise, it's the rights holder that's going to get hit with added costs and problems, whereas if we were to put in a simplified procedure or administrative regime—call it whatever you like—it seems to me that we would be saving money.
The government talks about spending tax money and so on. I think we should make sure that whatever we do is not adding costs that we don't have to for anybody other than the people who are doing the criminal activity, which I'd like to see us go stronger on from that perspective.
I guess that's the first question: do you think we should be spending more time on this bill to put more teeth into the bill?
Second, because I may not get the floor again, Mr. Keon, you mentioned legal opinions in regard to the distinctiveness issue that you're concerned about. Would you be prepared to give those to the committee to make sure that we all have adequate information?
