Mr. Speaker, I don't see a change in policy. We've still got judicial nomination committees that will look for the best candidates and appoint judges. The one change is that the Police Association of this country will now have a voice; one of seven or eight seats or whatever it is. One of them will be held by the Police Association, which I think is a good idea. Again, let me remind the Members, we don't have a government position, as it were, on something that's largely a federal matter. Thank you.
