It is important to note that one national organization is opposed to the bill. I wonder if the member could speak to that particular issue. To me, co-development, when presenting something to Parliament, should mean taking a consensus approach.</p>",

Toutefois, je crois qu'il faut reconna\u00eetre que ce dernier est loin d'\u00eatre parfait.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5885564\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mon coll\u00e8gue a parl\u00e9 du processus d'\u00e9laboration concert\u00e9e. Il est important de signaler qu'une organisation nationale s'oppose au projet de loi. J'aimerais que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 nous en dise davantage \u00e0 ce sujet. \u00c0 mon sens, pour qu'on puisse parler d'\u00e9laboration concert\u00e9e, il faudrait que le document pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 au Parlement fasse l'objet d'un consensus.</p>"
