As my colleague Minister Philpott indicated, this was a substantive dialogue she and I had, that we engage with stakeholders. We took into account all of the reports that are out there and reviewed practices in other jurisdictions.
I felt, as Minister of Justice, that it's important, in terms of being open and transparent, as you say, to put out all of the considerations that we undertook and considered to put together the proposed legislation, including looking at the charter and charter considerations. We feel and trust that Canadians can engage in these fundamental discussions around an issue that is so complex and personal, and it's incredibly important to be able to put out as much information as we can to enable that discussion, to enable an understanding of the depth of the information that was considered with respect to how we came up with the proposed legislation that we did, and the balance that we've sought to draw in terms of our responsibilities as parliamentarians in responding to the Supreme Court decision as well.
