Mr. Chair, I just want to point out that I certainly appreciate where members across are coming from; however, you made it apparent to all the parties that if they did have amendments to have them in by a certain time. You've been generous, fair, and even-handed in that response as far as amendments are concerned.
I just find that these last-minute amendment processes, especially if we don't have this in writing, make it very difficult when we are talking about things that are going to affect people's lives, particularly when we're talking about the Criminal Code of Canada.
