I recognize the usual generosity of my colleague. He is still trying to contribute to our process, and he supports the approach Conservatives that has been put forward in their electoral platform.
But the list he provided included agencies that were not established by federal legislation. That is why they have been excluded initially.
Also, several agencies do not get sizable funds from the federal government. Most of their resources come from the private sector. It is not the case with all agencies, but there are some in this list.
I have here a subamendment restricting the list to five agencies that have been established by federal legislation and that could be included in the list of institutions and agencies under the Access to Information Act.
My subamendment reads as follows: that BQ-28, proposing to amend clause 166 of Bill C-2 by replacing lines 1 to 9 on page 119, be amended by substituting the following:
Asia-Pacific Foundation of Canada, Canada Foundation for Innovation, Canada Foundation for Sustainable Development Technology, Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation and The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I hope I have the support of my colleagues.
