I do want to say that as a private member who doesn't have the opportunity to sit at the.... It was the opposition that said we're not allowed to have anybody other than the chair at the subcommittee meeting. I just want to make sure that one of the things that my constituents want to talk about is out there, and you guys can discuss whether or not it's a priority. I'm not advocating any changes to the way you did things in the past.
I do want to say I'm a little surprised at Mr. Easter's hesitation on product of Canada since he was the one at the last Parliament who tried to take credit for all the work the committee did on it. But that doesn't need to be talked about today, Mr. Chair.
