Those who work with me are quite familiar with the British North America Act, now known as the Constitution Act of 1867. They're quite familiar with the Canadian Bill of Rights, as introduced by Mr. Diefenbaker, and with the Canadian charter, and with all other constitutional documents going back to the Magna Carta, for that matter. They're quite familiar with those. This is the advice when we draft legislation.
I'm satisfied that the bills we table before Parliament are completely compliant with the Constitution of this country. I believe this bill is, and I believe the response we have tabled with respect to the quadrennial commission is in line with that approach and that it respects the constitutional responsibilities we have with respect to judicial independence, judicial salaries, and judicial benefits.
