Thank you, Mr. Chair.
They are indeed two different roles. This wording says that members of the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police are appointed by the Governor in Council. Another provision states that recommendations come from the minister. Mr. Gaheer's subamendment combines these two roles and that's why I support it. I think that it strengthens the Bloc Quebecois proposal and the one made earlier by the NDP, in which there is mention of giving consideration to "factors such as gender equality and the overrepresentation of certain groups in the criminal justice system, including Indigenous peoples and Black persons".
Generally speaking, these two amendments strengthen the bill. It's an important improvement and I'm satisfied with it.
