Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Commissioner, you said you were not consulted on the white paper. That shows the government developed the white paper behind closed doors, without consulting anyone, and that it is not taking the work seriously. You also said that modernizing the act was the key and that bringing in new regulations would not be enough. The committee discussed the modernization of the act. Witnesses at our last meeting told us that such a study should have been mandatory in order to put together a bill.
Do you agree that the next step should have been studying the modernization of the act, not developing a white paper behind closed doors?
