I agree with Mr. Holland and would like that tested out first, but I'd also like to test.... I'm new to the clause-by-clause process, and this is the first time I've dealt with a piece of legislation. I've been an MP for a year, but it's the first time I've done clause-by-clause, so I don't quite know the procedure for how we test out the principle of what I think both of these amendments are about.
I think they're the same or very similar, and I think they are consistent with testimony we heard in our study on the legislation itself—not the study on this bill, but the study we did the week before. But I don't know how we test out whether we're in agreement.
This will strengthen the registry. This will give another tool to police. I think that's what the government side is asking for. We think this makes it better and more effective legislation, but I don't want to waste a lot of time on Latin-English-French words, whatever, unless we know whether or not everyone's in agreement. I think we have the votes anyway.
