I think we should put as a priority the one you've suggested for June 6 in the order of reference.
Concerning the meeting on GATS, we've already agreed. There's no problem there.
Yes, I'd suggest the Auditor General before CBC, and also the fact that even though this committee as a group may not be going to Banff, the entire industry, including the CBC, will be in Banff. So perhaps that week might even be difficult for the CBC management.
I may add a suggestion that we indeed invite the minister to come back, but also we may want to add Madame Verner to our list of guests, because even Madame Oda today was making such suggestions, that we need to ask questions of Madame Verner vis-à-vis the francophone secretariat in the department.
Finally, there may be a need to add a meeting on Thursday, June 22.
As far as the request to appear is concerned, I would certainly discourage this committee from accepting that request. My information is that this application is still before the CRTC, that the CRTC has not made a decision. For us to step into a process that is arm's length, quasi-judicial....
I suppose most of us have been approached by representatives of these groups to meet with them. I think we cannot entertain that here until and unless a decision by the CRTC has been made--which can be appealed to the cabinet, incidentally. So until that process ends, we have to be very careful about entertaining witnesses on a matter that is currently before the CRTC.
