Subcommittee on Agenda and Procedure Committee on May 10th, 2016

[Jim Eglinski, Conservative, Yellowhead, AB]

If we organize it, then, we're all down there, we go, and we get it done with.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

Okay, I will talk to the whip and get that sorted, and if you're okay to go on the 16th, 17th, 18th and into the next week....

You're okay to do that?

[Jim Eglinski, Conservative, Yellowhead, AB]

I think I'm okay.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

The rest of us are probably okay to do it.

We're going the 16th, 17th, 18th...so it will be Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and then into that first week that we're back.

Okay?

[John Aldag, Liberal, Cloverdale—Langley City, BC]

For...?

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

For a trip. If we can work it all in together, we will; if not, we'll have to try to split up for two.

We need two things before we all run to the House. We have to go back to the witnesses.

We now are pretty sure that we're going to be doing a trip, travelling. Given that, and given that we may get a chance to do Jasper and that, who do we need to hear from?

We had West Coast Environmental Law, we had Pacific Salmon Foundation, we had Stewart Elgie. We'd likely try to wrap the town of Jasper in, with a visit to them. All right?

[John Aldag, Liberal, Cloverdale—Langley City, BC]

Yes.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

Okay. So, we have three, and you supported.... I'm sorry, Tim, you supported—

[Tim Williams]

I suggested.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

—you suggested West Coast Environmental Law.

[Tim Williams]

Yes.

[Nathan Cullen, NDP, Skeena—Bulkley Valley, BC]

I put the green budget in there, just as a paying mechanism, and how do the finances work on it. The green budget is just many...you get one shot, and you get everybody's opinion.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

They're submitting a brief to us. We need to decide who we...?

[William Amos, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

Why don't we pick one each and go for it?

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

No, because we only have one spot. We have just moved four over to the 17th. We only have one spot, so who do we offer it up to? Let's have two because one might say no.

Do you want to try West Coast Environmental Law or the Pacific Salmon Foundation?

[An hon. member]

Those would be my thoughts.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

West Coast? Pacific Salmon?

[Jim Eglinski, Conservative, Yellowhead, AB]

I thought that's what we agreed on.

[William Amos, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

I'm for Mr. Elgie.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

You're for Mr. Elgie.

Where are you, John?

[John Aldag, Liberal, Cloverdale—Langley City, BC]

I've had some good dealings with the Pacific Salmon group, if we're looking at marine.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

Okay, and Jim you're for Pacific Salmon?

[Jim Eglinski, Conservative, Yellowhead, AB]

Yes.

[The Chair, Liberal, Deb Schulte]

You're for Pacific salmon?

[Nathan Cullen, NDP, Skeena—Bulkley Valley, BC]

Yes.
