Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I feel that this is an important question. We will study the motion. I find it interesting that a concern like this has been raised.
I am saying to the committee—and I will say it again to the steering committee—that the Bloc Québécois is going to introduce three motions. I take note of the parliamentary secretary's advice and I will discuss it with my colleagues. Perhaps it is not appropriate to have the new Supreme Court judge appear since he has already taken up his position. That is a valid argument, but it would have been good if we could have met him.
Mr. Chair, I would like to set aside one of our sessions to deal with the question of human rights and adding social status as a “prohibited ground of discrimination“. Nine provinces have it. The committee does not need to conduct a study because plenty of information on the matter exists already. But it would be good for the committee to bring its concern to the Department of Justice. I would like us to set some meetings aside to discuss street gangs, cybercrime, and various aspects of organized crime. The committee could also see if the provisions of the Criminal Code are still relevant. We could be dealing with motions like that in short order.
