Mr. Chair, I don't recall a time when business that was discussed at this committee wasn't suggested by the subcommittee.
I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong, Mr. Lemieux, but I don't recall a time that any business that anyone wished to have discussed wasn't discussed, unless it failed by reason of somebody bringing a motion for a study. Typically, as I understand it, any work of the subcommittee or the steering committee was done in the genuine interests of Canadians and the genuine interests of farmers. There was no level of intolerance at the subcommittee or the steering committee, so I'm uncertain as to why you would want an extra member, Mr. Lemieux.
I'm not trying to be difficult. I'm just trying to understand why there is a need for a change.
