One would have thought that following a suggestion of the Criminal Lawyers' Association, as well as further clarification of the negligence offences, would have caused opposition critics of the bill to agree that all accommodations that could be made without changing the test for legal liability had been made.
On aurait pu croire que, en donnant suite à la recommandation de la Criminal Lawyers Association, et en précisant les infractions de négligence, nous aurions amené les adversaires du projet de loi à se raviser et à reconnaître que nous avions accordé toutes les concessions qu'il était possible d'accorder sans porter atteinte au critère de la responsabilité légale.
