On a point of order, Mr. Chair, with respect, the question from my colleague, whom I respect, is baseless. It's entering into the realm of fantasy.
He's asking the minister--as I try to understand the question--where we might have been if this and that had happened, if these ducks had fallen into order. The question is baseless. He's asking for an answer to a hypothetical question that is unfocused and disjointed, and I don't think the minister should be asked to answer.
