Thank you.
I believe that Mr. MacLauchlan will answer that directly in a moment, but it certainly was something raised by the chief justice in his consultation with Mr. MacLauchlan and the committee.
What I can say is what I said before. I understand the percentage of the court's docket that is criminal law, and I understand how important that is. I certainly understand, as Minister of Justice, the precedential value of those decisions that come from the Supreme Court. You've seen that in recent weeks and months when we were sitting.
As I've said before, there is other latent expertise on the bench to begin with. There are other justices who have experience in criminal law as well as their accumulated experience as judges at the superior court, the court of appeal and now Supreme Court levels. Justice O'Bonsawin brings that with her as a former sitting superior court judge, but also with an expertise in dimensions of criminal law that are increasingly important.
I'm confident that she will add to the criminal law capabilities of the court, and I'm confident generally in the criminal law capabilities of the court.
