Thank you, Mr. Chair.
That case is grossly exaggerated. That is just not what would happen at all.
Now, on amendment BQ-7.1, we have significant problems with purely on a technical basis, notwithstanding the policy problem we have. First of all, “judicial record” is not a defined term anywhere. It's not a defined term under any act. It is in fact inconsistent with the Criminal Records Act, so technically the amendment does not mean anything. It's technically wrong.
What I would suggest for consideration is that amendment NDP-8 covers the same issue. We still have a problem with the policy side of that, but at least amendment NDP-8 is technically correct.
I would throw this out just for consideration. We might want to vote down amendment BQ-7.1 and have the same discussion on amendment NDP-8, because I believe it has the same meaning. But at least, as I say, NDP-8 is technically correct.
