Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Thank you all for coming today and sharing your thoughts on Bill C-10. Like Mr. Casey, I was struck by all three of you commenting, using almost the same language, about the need for a comprehensive tobacco control strategy. I want to unpack that a little bit, but first I'd like to talk a bit about where Bill C-10 fits in all of that.
As I understand your response to Bill C-10, I think all three of you have referred to it as a deterrent. I'm wondering, because we've talked about other things like tax policy, how much thought from you has actually gone into how that's going to work as a deterrent, whether you have considered such things as differential impact on different parts of society, about the mandatory minimums involved in Bill C-10, and criminalization of possibly youth, and possibly some sections of society.
Have you guys given any thought to that?
