I just need some clarification.
Mr. Bélanger, I was agreeing, and then I was just curious as to the exact wording you had suggested. I'm very concerned. Maybe we can talk about that. I don't want to split hairs, because obviously this is an important issue. I actually met with some representatives from the Canadian Media Guild. I understand this is a very important issue, and I think all Canadians should have their say on this issue.
I am concerned, however, that if we do ask the minister to intervene in any way, shape, or form, if we ask that there be action taken by the minister on behalf of this committee, we probably will have gone too far.
I do think it's very important that we put on the record our beliefs about this situation here in this committee. If individuals from this committee feel it is important, I think we should lobby from our position as members of Parliament. I don't know if we should be asking the minister to intervene in any way, shape, or form. If we ask for assurances or whatever, I think it's all the same. It's just semantics, and we're really asking for the minister to do something.
