[Translation] The Chair: Perfect; go ahead. To start with, allow me to offer everyone my best wishes for the new year, since this is our first meeting of the year. Mr. Bernard Colas: I'll make this presentation first in English, [English] then in French, and, lastly, in English again. We've filed written versions of our presentation. As you know, we had briefly started on our mandate of electoral reform just prior to the adjournment at Christmas. At that time we First I would like to thank you very much for inviting the Law had decided that the minute we came back we wanted to hear from a Commission to appear before you today. particular group of witnesses, namely the Law Commission of Canada, and of course as well from Dr. Nathalie Des Rosiers because As you know, in March 2004 the Law Commission tabled in she of course at the time was leading the group. Now they're in Parliament its final report on electoral reform. Today we have different places, but they're both here together again. basically two messages to express to the committee. First, the Law [Translation] Commission went through extensive consultation with Canadians in order to come up with a made-in-Canada constitution-proof solution. This morning I'm pleased to welcome the following witnesses: We are here also to express our possible cooperation with the Nathalie Des Rosiers, Dean of the Faculty of Civil Law of the committee in order to give the committee access to this wealth of University of Ottawa; Bernard Colas, Acting President of the Law information. Second, the Law Commission's recommendation to add Commission of Canada; and Steven Bittle, Senior Research Officer an element of proportionality to Canada's electoral system could act of that same organization. as a vital starting point for examining this important issue. In [English] particular, we would encourage the committee, in order to accelerate the process, to consider our recommendation to prepare draft Perhaps I could start with Madame Des Rosiers.

I want to remind colleagues that we must end our deliberations at 12:30 so that we can have a meeting about agenda. There are agenda Let me say a few words on the Law Commission and the genesis items that we have to deal with today, in particular in regard to the of its project on electoral reform. plan of the committee and the study we're going to undertake in this regard. The Law Commission is a body that is very precious for Canadian democracy. It is an independent federal law reform agency that If we don't do it today, we're not going to be able to go to some of advises Parliament on how to improve and modernize Canada's laws. the places we want to go because there won't be airline tickets left. In brief, it is the law reform voice of Canadians to Parliament. The We have to do it today. So at 12:30 I'll have to interrupt the meeting. work we undertake stems from the important insights gained by [Translation] engaging Canadians on issues of law and justice. We'll now hear from our witnesses.

The process can also enable Canadians to speak that will address all concerns regarding Canada's system of out on other elements that could be reformed in order to improve our governance, there was a growing consensus that electoral reform parliamentary democracy. would be a good starting point for energizing and strengthening Canadian democracy. Many Canadians we spoke with stated that it [English] was time to examine whether the existing electoral system continues to meet the democratic goals and aspirations of Canadians. In brief, the Law Commission of Canada believes that adding an element of proportionality to the electoral system would allow In addition to noting the distortion between the votes received and Parliament to more completely represent our society and to lower the seats in the House of Commons—a party could get 40% of the votes barriers to greater diversity among our representatives, including and 60% of the seats—many citizens expressed concern with the women, certain minority group members, and aboriginal people.

In conclusion, I would encourage you to consider the insight that The important thing for the Commission was to determine the the Law Commission has gained throughout the course of our views of the largest possible number of Canadians and to permit the electoral reform project, particularly the strategies we employed to expression of various interests. First we conducted preliminary engage citizens on this important issue. In addition, we believe that research.

I love you both to the ends of the earth and am eternally grateful for your tolerance of this project. ii Acknowledgments To my family – Lindsey, you made the greatest sacrifices that allowed this project to come to fruition. You moved away from your family to Michigan. You allowed me to conduct two months of fieldwork when you were pregnant with our daughter. You helped drafts come together and were a constant sounding board and confidant throughout the long process of writing. This would not have been possible without you. Sophia, Poe, and Jo served as motivation for this project and a distraction from it when each was necessary. Mom, Dad, Chad, Max, Julian, and Olivia, as well as Papa Ernie and Grandma Audrey all, helped build the road that I was able to safely walk down in the pursuit of this doctorate. You served as role models, supports, and friends that I could lean on as I grew into my career and adulthood.
