Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Pelletier, thank you for being here today.
As Yvon Godin explained earlier, the Liberals supported the bill on the appointment of bilingual judges to the Supreme Court at the time. The Nadon decision, which you mentioned and which was rendered in 2014, as I recall, sort of changed my colleagues' arguments. Now they say that an amendment to the Supreme Court Act may require a constitutional amendment.
A few weeks ago or a few months ago, we received another expert, Sébastien Grammond. I'm not sure whether you have had the opportunity to hear or read his testimony, or whether you are at all familiar with his opinion. He pretty much told us the same thing as you, that you need to make a distinction between essential and non-essential criteria for judges. To the best of your knowledge, what is the argument of those who believe that such a change would be unconstitutional?
