Thank you.
Mr. Chair. I think that's reasonable. I know my Liberal and NDP colleagues were in favour of the initial motion earlier, but I think we also have to allow for the work that we have to do for any bill.
I understand why we want to precipitate matters, why we want to hurry, but this is an important bill for the Bloc Québécois, for Quebeckers, for Canadians and for official language minority communities. We must respect the work we have to do, and we must also have to respect ourselves. We need to do our work properly.
I have some important witnesses to be heard in committee, and I want to make sure they can be heard. As Ms. Thomas said, I want to have the time to prepare the amendments based on the testimony we've heard. We have to take the time to do the job right.
