Mr. Chair, I think we should follow the rules of the House and not get into this ”somebody was there, somebody wasn't there”. I think it's a bit of an attack on a person to say they were at this meeting or they weren't at that meeting. For various reasons, we can't be at all the meetings when we're on tour, so I think we should keep it out of there.
