Thanks, Mr. Chair.
I thank you all for being here.
Just to be clear on something, Ms. Beare, if the judges are bothered by anything you mentioned, it's not in relation to anything this Parliament has done to date, because none of our criminal law initiatives are even in place. I wouldn't want people to be led to believe this has something to do with the work this committee has been doing and the number of bills we're working on. This is something that also has to be addressed in the system—the backlog, the workload, and that type of thing—but it's certainly not a result of anything that has been done by this Parliament.
