I'm going to take this half a minute to summarize what I see the issue as being. I appreciate my colleagues' comments. I believe each one of them is genuine in their attempts to understand the Navigation Protection Act and what led us up to the changes that were made in 2012.
I guess I would suggest, as my colleague has formerly, that we're studying this because it's in the minister's mandate letter to restore the protections that were removed by the previous government. I think that has been our biggest concern. The conclusions, what this committee may choose to recommend, may not even be considered, because there's a foregone conclusion about what needs to happen, which is why we have opposed this study right from the beginning.
I appreciate so much the clarity that you've brought today.
