Thank you.
I just have four points on this. One is that in the numbers, we talked about roughly 3,000 married and common-law couples, and then you add a few pregnancies on top of that. Mr. Comartin's amendment would legalize at any one time in the future roughly 3,000 cases—not a few cases—the way the amendment's written. So it's a significant number. In the future, if they decide to be married or be common law, or if they became pregnant, then whether it would be legal is the issue we're considering.
My second point is that yesterday we were discussing the bill with the minister, who said he had consulted all the attorneys general as a matter of importance. Ms. Morency, I'm wondering what the attorneys general in the provinces think about allowing marriage under 16. What are their thoughts on us making it illegal for some of those marriages to occur? What have they told you?
