I just want to know whether the entire committee can ask to have a constitutional expert brought in. I am really not comfortable with the constitutionality of this legislation.

Madame Doré, I'm going to rule that we have a session coming up on committee business, which would be the appropriate place to raise this point.

All right.

I understand that our chair, who injured himself hauling grain, will be with us again on Thursday. I know we all wish him well.

Thanks very much.

I will declare this session adjourned.
