The Chair Conservative James Rajotte

I thank our two officials for being here for this division. Thank you very much. We appreciate it.

Colleagues, we have six minutes till the vote, so I think we should go to vote. Am I fair in assuming that's what the committee wants me to do?

Do you want to keep going, Mr. Keddy?
