Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I just want to support what my colleague Madame Boivin has been saying.
I'd like to thank the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Justice for her answer regarding the motion. I listened to and I read the answer, and I got the feeling that this is the mechanism and this is how it works, but I'm still not sure what happens in practice. As Madame Boivin mentioned, there are a lot of cases where, with the system that is in place, things have not been checked, or there was something wrong. I think the purpose of this motion and this study is for us to really understand.
Perhaps to speak to what Mr. Rathgeber was saying, I might not have as much experience as a lot of people here, but I was sitting on the finance committee, and we looked at not necessarily just things, specifically, but at getting recommendations to actually find ways to make things easier.
I find that one of the problems with the way the system is right now is that it costs Canadian taxpayers a lot of money. Bringing legislation to court and having the whole issue in front of the court costs a lot of money. It costs taxpayers, whether it's from the federal government perspective or the provincial government or things like that.
There are a lot of issues with respect to that—
