Madam Speaker, I want to talk about the timeline in getting the bill to the House.
This process was initiated in December 2017. There was a bunch of work done by an interim board of directors that lasted from January to June 2018. When they completed their work, they issued a report with a number of recommendations. They actually included a draft bill in that report in June 2018. Nothing happened until December 2021, when the minister appointed the new transitional committee.
We agree this is a very important issue, but why did it take three and a half years to take that next step in the process?
