Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I haven't discussed this specific issue with the Minister. I have met with him the one time in Ottawa to talk about a couple of issues and to agree that we needed to sit down and talk about a number of different things and a number of different files more comprehensively. But my officials at a senior official level are involved across the provinces and territories at a working group level. We have something called a coordinating committee of senior officials on family law, which meets frequently to discuss issues, projects, legislative changes. So I know that this is one of the issues that they have been discussing, and legislative change, legislative evolution I know happens very slowly and oftentimes much too slowly for those who are dealing with these very painful issues. I will tell the Member that it's certainly on the national radar and continues to be discussed at a number of forums. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
