You don't need saving; you never have.
The way I see things going is as follows. Say that we met next week as a committee, would we decide which particular studies we would take up three months after the fact? That's my worry. As you just said, it is a very fluid relationship that Canada has with China, to put it mildly. I'm not sure how good that would be for this committee to take up. I don't see the utility of that.
If we get together and exchange ideas, I suppose that's all well and good as far as getting to know each other better is concerned, and hearing out what the various MPs on the committee would want to pursue as far as future studies go, but I don't know if that would be the best use of our time.
Again, we would meet next week. Parliament is adjourning shortly, as we know. Then we will meet three months later to take up a study that might be out of date entirely. There might be much more pressing situations to take up at that time.
That's my concern.
