Thank you.
I just want to say to the Insurance Bureau that I was surprised that New Brunswick was on that list. Both Monsieur LeBlanc and I will be taking that up with our Liberal friends in New Brunswick who, with their no-fault legislation in the past, have been quite friendly to the IBC.
I guess I'm going to cut to the chase with the criminal defence lawyers on this point. The Police Association has put some very specific suggestions forward here that I think are workable. One is a legislative preamble. Now, they're not lawyers, but they're saying that from their experience, if a legislative preamble is in the legislation, it gives the judge some guidance as to the inherent harm inflicted by impaired driving and so on.
My first question to one of you is, how much impact do you think that will have? How much would it change the status quo if there were a really good preamble?
The second question I have is about a suggestion from Mr. Therien's group that the alcohol test committee be given the authority to approve the alcohol ignition systems. I presume, and I'll just take it as a quick yes, that you have no problem with that. It's almost an administrative thing.
So back to my original question about the preamble. How important is that?
