I'm a new member of the committee. I think all of us would want to join together in thanking the staff. This week has been quite a marathon. The clerks, the analysts, the translators, and everyone else have been going night and day, and I think they deserve thanks from all of us.

The Chair Conservative James Rajotte

I want to thank you very much for that gracious...I don't know if it was a point of privilege, but as your chair, I appreciate that very much.

I'd like to also thank the finance officials and all the people who arranged for the officials.

I want to thank all of you, as my colleagues. I thought the clause-by-clause worked very well. I appreciate the fact that you identified to me the sections you wanted to focus on. I appreciate that very much.

Thanks to all of you. Enjoy the week.

The meeting is adjourned.
