Mr. Van Popta, I appreciate the concern.
I would just say to you that when there's an appointment as significant as a vacancy on the Supreme Court of Canada and when there's been an effective vacancy since February, with Mr. Brown stepping down from his judicial duties, it is incumbent upon all of us to work with expedition.
That's what the IAB has done. That's what's being asked of this committee. I think it's important to keep it as a salient aspect in mind that we're trying to fill a vacancy in the top court of the land, which is hearing pressing matters that will have impacts on Canadians' lives.
Thank you.
