I think we've studied this topic, the design selection process. We've had the minister here. We've had the Minister of Canadian Heritage here. We've had department officials here. I just want to remind members that we've had veterans who have come before us.
I've never heard any veteran, either coming to my office or calling, or in this committee—in this study or others—say that the selection that the government has finally made with regard to the team Stimson design has been incorrect. We've heard of process problems that have been there, especially from the artistic community, but we have not heard from others in regard to that, from the actual people we're trying to see—people who have served. I have not heard anything of significance from that, or any uproar. I spent three days at a veterans summit, which my colleague Mr. Desilets also attended, the national stakeholder summit in Montreal. Again, people wanted the monument to move forward, but I did not hear any objection to the design selected.
I think the amendment my colleague has proposed is very valid, and we should move forward with that.
