I'm in agreement, but each of those three elements is true, and I think we've heard for a very long time that words aren't enough and action is required.
Amending the criminal law is the strongest action the government can take, and they're taking these actions straight out of this very committee's report related to anti-Semitism.
Can I ask you about the Attorney General consent? I think your position is that, and I may be paraphrasing, you think there may be other ways to address it, but as you know, this committee can't address that in this bill in the ways you've just suggested to Mr. Brock. We as a committee can't give guidelines to how Attorneys General should or should not give consent or timelines to provincial Attorneys General. We can't amend the bill in that way.
What we could do, if we felt it was necessary, is remove it from private prosecutions and leave it for public prosecutions.
Is that essentially CIJA's preferred position?
