Conservatives supported going forward with the study and supported your invitation, but what we did not support was politicizing this accountability tool at committee. I agree with a lot of what you've said, though I am quite concerned that this has politicized a very serious issue.
I know, Mayor Brown, that you represent a community that has many Sikh Canadians. You must have a good sense of the mood on the ground there. Can you enlighten the committee on what impact the past few months have had on them? We'd like to hear for the record—I think it would be useful for our committee—the impact that this has had.
