Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate everybody's being here. This is a really interesting topic.
I open this up to all of our witnesses.
Through you, Mr. Chair, I was speaking to Professor Scott earlier, and we were talking about transparency. Throughout this process I've been thinking about it, as in, what happens on the provincial level with law societies when a lawyer is getting sanctioned? I'm mindful of the fact that we are federal and these are provincial, but certainly an analogy can be drawn.
I believe that in British Columbia—and likely in most jurisdictions—when a complaint is made and that complaint is deemed not to be frivolous or spurious, then that complaint is automatically made public.
Professor Scott, and any of the other witnesses, can you comment on Bill C-9 and the analogy, or lack there of, in this legislation, to that transparency?
