Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Commissioner Langtry. I think the three questions you posed at the end of your presentation are very good questions, in terms of fair access to justice, being able to access their rights in a safe way, and of course the capacity to develop and implement their own matrimonial real property.
I want to just touch.... Of course, I was on the aboriginal affairs committee when we were dealing with the repeal of section 67. In that piece of legislation there was a three-year transition period to allow communities to get up to speed with their new obligations. In this particular piece of legislation, there's only a one-year transition period.
Can you say something about the importance of having an adequate transition period in order to bring communities up to speed?
