Mr. Chairman, I think it's important here to understand that we are all in good faith. I'm happy to know that Mr. Del Mastro is meeting a lot of people. We are all meeting people too and we're doing our job collectively.
That said, there is very important work to do in committee and that results in a dynamic in which we ask questions and debate them.
In my view, it's important to leave the list open so we can add not a lot of people, but unavoidable witnesses. For example, if we realize that the minister of education from Ontario or Alberta wants to come and testify but is not on the list, I want that kind of person to be added to it.
We're not talking about amending the list here. I think that work has largely been done. Instead I hope we have the opportunity to invite witnesses based on evidence we've heard and on how important it is for the issue for them to be here.
So I think the list clearly has to stay open specifically for that reason, not for the rest.
