Thank you, Mr. Savard-Tremblay.
Here's why I will be voting against this amendment. Our committee already has the authority to undertake such a review if it so wishes. The parliamentary report foreseen in this amendment includes recommendations. With all due respect, I am not sure how we could implement the recommendations without amending the bill. This would require that the negotiations with the United Kingdom on the transitional agreement be reopened after its ratification, when we are in a position to negotiate the main comprehensive agreement.
We have all the tools we need to ensure that, in the next step, we consider the recommendations of the committee and, of course, of Canadians as part of a truly comprehensive consultation process. We have everything we need to complete the negotiations within one year.
