Thanks, Mr. Chair.
And thanks, Mr. Berthold.
The idea of March 19, I think, is a good idea, and four hours is better than two. Generally, Monday evening is an evening when we can get things done. I think that also shows that this committee does work well together, which we do. We are working on behalf of the farmers. I think we do all have a common focus there.
It was good to see the Grain Growers of Canada also mention in their letter: don't make it a partisan issue; just solve the problem.
I want to comment on the omnibus piece, but maybe we could do that after we deal with the subamendment. I spoke on Bill C-49 in the House, and I have some thoughts relating to the purported omnibus nature of the bill, which I want to share with this committee from I said in the House about it, but if we could deal with the subamendment, that would be wonderful.
