Mr. Julian, would you like to speak to NDP-22 on page 45?

6:15 p.m.

NDP

Peter Julian NDP Burnaby—New Westminster, BC

It's my delight, Mr. Chair, to tell you that NDP-22 is actually consequential to NDP-13, which we did not pass, but since I have the microphone on I would like to say that generally I think we have reinforced the noise provisions of Bill C-11, and I'd particularly like, for the record, to thank all of the witnesses, particularly those from British Columbia and Quebec, who appeared before us, because I think through their comments they've help to push stronger language than we would have had.

I am not completely satisfied, but I think there have been some movements made. We'll see how well the agency does its job. I would like to thank the staff as well.

So NDP-22 is withdrawn.
