The Chair Liberal Scott Simms

I don't want to launch into that debate all over again, sir, but I will say that the remedy I spoke of earlier, of course, would be an adjournment. However, we are in the middle of the point of order, and I can't allow a motion to be put forward on a point of order.

Therefore, I go back to Mr. Genuis.

You have the floor.

Garnett Genuis Conservative Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB

All right.

Mr. Chair, I don't want to be too prescriptive, because I'm not a regular member of this committee, but in deference to my colleagues, I'll move a motion to adjourn and see where the chips land.

Just to confirm, voting yes would adjourn the meeting and voting no would continue the meeting.

I'm sorry, Mr. Rayes. I see that your hand is up, but we are officially adjourned.

Did you want to say happy birthday? That's the only thing I can allow, because I want to be nice.

I want to wish him a happy birthday. Since we didn't have dinner, I'll be waiting for him with my muffins to celebrate his birthday. There will be muffins for anyone who wants them.
