Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for his introduction of what is now Bill C-30.
I was looking at the Supreme Court of Canada decision made in October 2006 and, as the Liberal member pointed out, it has been over four years now that the government has let this situation deteriorate. The parliamentary secretary just explained that it had to go through some procedures, but a proroguing of the House also delayed matters. The fact is that during all of this time there have been many cases that have passed by us by virtue of the government's delaying.
Does the member have any accounting of how many missed cases have gone by now because of this delay of over four years?
