Thank you, Mr. Hoback. Given that the time has virtually expired for the New Democrats and the Liberals, and I don't see anybody else from the Conservatives to speak on this, I must proceed to recording the vote on this.
However, before we do that, I want committee members to understand that the decision we take here on this particular amendment has ramifications for the next amendment. So if we take a look at it from the perspective of NDP-9, we see that if NDP-8 is defeated, then the NDP-9 motion cannot be put because it would be inconsistent with this decision.
Mr. Martin, you'll know that we cannot discuss the Governor in Council recommendation and so on and replace that if indeed the clauses remain the same. We couldn't have that inconsistency in the legislation--
