Yes, if that point is clear. I just keep getting interrupted mid-sentence.
Therefore, in the particular case of the Bernardo hearings, eventually, in spite of the opposition of other parties, we were able to compel an agreement for the committee to hear from families and representatives of the victims and have some of the very important, very powerful hearings that took place in the fall. People came here to be heard, with the expectation that what they shared would lead to action—yet sadly, here we are in practically the middle of May, and this committee has still not reported to the House on the Bernardo transfer.
This is in a context of Liberals in particular not wanting to study this issue at all. Now they are trying to block or prevent the reporting to the House on this matter. They seem to think that it is acceptable, in this case uniquely, following the pressure we exerted at that time to have hearings, but there's no report.
Our view is that the way to honour the families, to honour their sacrifice and their struggle in coming to testify, and also to try to improve our country and to incorporate their feedback, would be for us to prepare a report and to report to the House. Hopefully, that leads to policy changes, but I look at the timeline here, and the timeline is revealing. Normally, you would not only proceed to report but you would also proceed to report as quickly as possible after the hearings have been completed, yet here we are, six months later, and the government is trying to push this committee away from consideration of the Bernardo transfer.
