I apologize to the interpreters because I told them I wasn't going to talk.

Just so that I'm clear, we would meet this Friday as a final meeting, and that's the meeting Michael is requesting. Then, Chair, you can obviously take matters into your own hands, but my understanding is that from there we would revert back the following week to a three-hour meeting every Monday, and we would not have two meetings a week. Is that correct?

That's correct.

All right?

So, that's the deal. We will meet on Friday. We'll get as many remaining witnesses as we can. We will carve off a little time next Monday for drafting instructions on this. I'm sure we'll have a very fulsome report to present to Parliament.

Dr. Gilmour, thank you for your time and making the effort to be here in person. I know it was a bit of a stretch to your schedule. We appreciate it very much.

I will thank the interpreters, our staff and everybody who has made tonight possible.

With that, we will adjourn.
