Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Just briefly, obviously I've been quiet this meeting. It's my first intervention as a member of this committee, and it's good to be here.
Folks around the table have been part of this work a lot longer, obviously, but in coming into this with fresh eyes as a new member of the committee, I think that from my perspective I don't want to repeat what was being said but just reiterate how important it is to have more of a discussion about such an important and sensitive topic. When we talk about public safety, I think this is an issue that obviously has to be right at the forefront of it.
I don't know if it will be a lost cause or not, but I wanted to continue to implore my colleagues around the table to reconsider having only one meeting on this topic, just given the gravity of it and given the importance. Again, as a new member, I don't have all the experience that some of the other folks around here have, but I definitely think this is something that we have to reconsider. I urge everyone to do so.
