Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I just want to make a short statement to thank the Minister and the members and chair of the Social Programs Committee for moving with such speed and resolve to introduce this and to get this bill through during the life of this session.

I think we should look into seeing if we have broken any records in terms of the speed of the bill being introduced here. I think all the work was done within a week to ten days.

I appreciate this because it is a concern that a constituent of mine brought to my attention at the beginning of the session. I know that while all Members in this House had to work together to get this bill through, I am sure my constituent will be pretty impressed with my effectiveness.

I would just like to really thank the Minister and members for getting this job done. I think this should serve as an example where all the Members of this House could work really well together to do a good thing for the people. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
