Mr. Dechert, to answer that question directly, there weren't the types of consultations, for example, that might normally occur, but we saw consultations and empirical data and information being gathered by one of our colleagues to present a private member's bill.
The commitment in the Speech from the Throne came about, and in large part this bill was drawn, from that private member's bill. As well, there were visits to police training quarters and there were opportunities to hear directly from those who had worked with service animals, both in the military and police and otherwise. Again, our colleague, Costas Menegakis, gathered a body of evidence and information, and we gathered some information in the course of making that commitment in the Speech from the Throne.
