I think that's often assumed, but absolutely, for further clarity, no problem.

Mrs. Thomas, go ahead.

May I just take a couple of minutes and, through you, Chair, check in with the clerk on a couple of outstanding items that have been promised to this committee? I'm just curious as to where they're at.

When the CEO of the CBC was here, there were several documents that were promised to us. One she was supposed to report to us was “the last five Conservative voices”, for the last two weeks, by October 30. I'm just curious as to if we've received that list. She still has a couple of days, but I'm curious to know if that's been submitted.
The second thing promised to us was the total number of TFWs hired in the past 10 years and the positions they filled. That was also promised to us by October 30.
Then there was the total amount spent on CBC Gem. That was also promised to us by October 30. I realize there are still a few more days there, but I thought I'd check in.
The second meeting that I would like to check in on has to do with the minister who was here and promised that he would review the funding for and the eligibility of Cult MTL, as well as funding that went to the Anti-Hate Network. He promised that he would assess that and that he would get back to this committee with regard to whether that funding would continue, or if it would cease based on some troubling posts from these organizations. I'm curious as to whether if we've heard back from the minister on that.
Lastly, Isabelle Mondou promised to send the working definition of “Canadian culture”. I'm just wondering if we've received that.

Is it the will of the committee to ask the clerk to reach out to those witnesses and ask for the timelines for that information?

The Chair Liberal Lisa Hepfner
Witnesses, I want to really thank you for your participation today. Your insights are very valuable. It was a super interesting conversation.
I would add that if there's anything you weren't able to get on the record today, please send us a brief. Let us know if any thought occurred to you afterwards that you wish you had said. Please send it to us. Our analysts can take that information so that our members will have it. We can include it in our final report on this study.
Thank you again.
With that, I declare this meeting adjourned.
