Mr. Speaker, I will say a few things.
First, I would push back on the idea that there is no judicial independence in this country. Yes, prime ministers and, ultimately, ministers of justice make appointment decisions, and it is a political representative who makes those decisions. However, this is not a politicized process in Canada. This is something we should take deeply personally. It is something we should make sure we continue to protect. The government and I both believe it is transparent. Individuals are able to identify themselves as wanting to go forward. I do not think there is a problem.
There is a problem around resourcing. I would agree with the member insofar as governments, especially at the federal level, have to ensure that appointments happen quickly. As well, provincial governments need to make sure that, at the provincial level, their judiciary is properly resourced and that we have access to trials so that we are able to move forward.
