Mr. Speaker, I look forward to seeing the bill that the government will be introducing this fall. The Standing Committee on the Status of Women briefly discussed the fact that this bill would be introduced. It looks like we will have another opportunity to talk about it. In the meantime, I would like to address another issue.
In her speech, my colleague spoke at length about the justice system, and one of the federal government's roles is to appoint judges. Right now, it is taking unreasonably long to do it, but that should not be the case. The problem is that the federal government has not fulfilled its role of appointing judges in a timely manner to ensure that the justice system can function properly. This creates delays and undermines victims' confidence in the justice system.
This week, thanks to my colleague from Rivière-du-Nord, we once again raised the issue of the process for appointing judges, which should be challenged from time to time.
