Simply to build upon what's been said by some of the other colleagues here, I think in terms of actually having a defined composition, the rules, who's going to make up the committee and also the procedure that will be entailed, are of paramount importance. The CBC holds a very near and dear place to many Canadians across this country. I think as parliamentarians, and especially as parliamentarians on this committee, we have a responsibility to our constituents and to other Canadians to ensure that the review that is carried out does have accountability and transparency, and also is a fair review. I think to comment on an end product when you haven't been involved from the beginning wouldn't do the report justice and wouldn't do the whole review process in itself any type of justice.
I don't think you were able to comment on what the five options are that the minister is exploring, so perhaps we as a committee could also look at bringing the minister to our committee and having her elaborate on what her intentions are in regard to those five options, and the direction in which she hopes to see the review proceed.
I think it's important for this committee to be involved right at the initial stages, especially in terms of composition, in terms of mandate, and also in terms of defining the rules as we move forward.
