That's fine.
Let me just say again before I cede the floor to Kevin, that all we as a government have ever wanted is to conduct hearings to examine the bill in its totality by hearing witnesses. We have gotten to the point now that satisfies our desire. We want a thorough examination of the bill. The minister has stated, on at least one occasion that I'm aware of, that he'd even consider amendments that he thought could improve the bill. So there's no trying to hijack the situation. We're not trying to rush this bill through Parliament. We want an extensive examination in committee where it should be, and I'm very pleased to have this agreement before us today.
So, with that, Chair, I think I'll cede my time to Mr. Lamoureux and I believe, as we discussed earlier and agreed, that Mr. Lamoureux will have 30 minutes, at which time I expect we will be back to my motion for the final vote.
