Thank you. Perhaps we can chat at a future date.
One of the issues we have with new legislation—and you'll be aware of this—is that we have 10 provinces and three territories, and this law will be tested in every single one of those. It gets tested at the trial level. Then it goes to the court of appeal, and then it has to go to the Supreme Court of Canada. This costs probably hundreds of millions of dollars in litigation.
There's one way around this, and that's with a reference case to the Supreme Court of Canada, who could say that revised section 33.1 is, in its view, constitutional or unconstitutional. Was there any thought given to that? One of the things that we're hearing about in consultations, in my view, and one of the things that we're talking about today, is uncertainty. A reference case would give us certainty.
My question is this: Was there any thought given to a reference case to the Supreme Court of Canada?
