I hear the sentiments. Our hope was that we'd get some type of contrast between local and national museums to see how differently they're run. But I certainly take what's been said with no offence.
Certainly across the country museums are run completely differently from one end to the other. I would have no problem if we were to cross out the “furtherfore” in order to move this forward. Then if we wanted to move a motion at some later date, talking about different locations we could visit across the country, I would have no problem with that.
I'm most concerned that we have an opportunity to discuss museums and invite the Canadian Museums Association. I know that many of my colleagues have met with the folks from the association, who have some important issues they want to talk to us about sooner than later.
So if it would please our committee, I would certainly have no problem crossing out the more regional museums from this and talk more about the national museums. I would also like to have the opportunity to bring in the Canadian Museum Association.
