Good. Thank you to the witnesses for being here.
Mr. Taylor, I'll start with you.
I believe there is a consensus across Canada now that Canada's bail system needs to be reformed. We have a letter signed by 13 premiers saying that. We heard the minister just a few minutes ago talking very favourably about a federal-provincial meeting that he and Minister Lametti were at, saying that there is good progress being made. That is despite what Mr. Lametti said not too long ago, when he was asked about this. He said that he was open to suggestions for improvements, but he believed our bail system to be strong and sound. That's what he said.
Anyway, today it appears that we have a consensus that something needs to be done. There's been quite a bit of talk about reverse onuses and amending the Criminal Code, but my question is going to focus on work that some provincial governments and attorneys general have done, particularly in my province, British Columbia. We also had the Attorney General of Saskatchewan here the other day talking about that.
I want your opinion on that. What do you think the provinces have done effectively, and what could they do effectively when it comes to bail reform?
