Yes, and thank you, MP Findlay, for the history going back when this bill actually came to the justice committee for the first time. It did pass through the justice committee and into the House, so that was good.
You're losing billions of dollars, especially in British Columbia. There is no question. I look at the single-game betting for sports where you're on the border with Washington. They're going to get a new NHL franchise this fall. They have NFL football. They have the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball. You are losing out in millions of dollars that the Province of B.C. could give back to the communities in your neighbourhoods.
I've watched and I've looked at the graph of Pro-Line and Sport Select from B.C., because you were around $100 million and now you're down to $90 million, and the graph is continually going down in the province of B.C. I can tell you, you've lost at least $10 million to $15 million per year on Pro-Line because of that graph. People are finding ways to enjoy gaming. They have left the B.C. Lottery Corporation. They know that.
As I've just told you, in one year I've seen a reduction of at least $10 million in betting alone from the B.C. Lottery Corporation, which could be used in your province.
