Thank you, Ms. Ashton.
I would like to take the opportunity before we vote on your motion to thank Mr. Goldbloom and Ms. Tait for coming here today and answering tough questions.
I think I could repeat what Mr. Champoux said, and he's absolutely right. You've always been frank and above board and you have answered difficult questions and sent us information if you didn't have it on hand. Thank you for coming. I appreciate your time.
I'm going to now say that the witnesses may leave. Thank you very much.
The committee will move to Ms. Ashton's motion. I have been trying to get a couple of budgets for these meetings voted on, and it seems that we're not going to be able to do that.
I'd like to put Ms. Ashton's motion on the table. Does anyone wish to discuss it?
I see no hands up for discussion.
I'm going to call a vote. Do you want a recorded vote, Ms. Ashton?
You do.
Would the clerk please move to a recorded vote? Thank you.
(Motion negatived: nays 6; yeas 5 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
I'm going to now quickly ask the committee to bear with me just for a minute to discuss the two budgets that I have for you.
One is a budget for the study of Canada's anti-racism strategy. The amount is $2,500. Is someone moving to accept this budget?
