Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Maharaj, I'd like to return to the question of mediation, which we didn't really have enough time to discuss in the first round of questions.
Although, of course, there can still be discussions about the rules, the disciplinary process does not provide a mediation mechanism. Would it have been a good idea to consider formal mediation meetings between the judge against whom there has been a complaint and the representatives of the Canadian Judicial Council to try and find a negotiated outcome?
I think that the new provisions in Bill C‑9 might encourage judges to try and avoid a trial or a hearing before the Canadian Judicial Council.
Do you feel it would have been a good idea to provide for a mediation mechanism like that?
