I think the question that I ask is not ridiculous. What I did was quote the new leader of the Liberal Party and I wanted clarification on that party's position. That party is basically supporting this bill. The leader said the target will not be reached. The witnesses we've heard at this committee said they won't be reached. Again, I think it's a very relevant question. Should this bill go forward if his own leader says it's not achievable? I think it's a relevant question, and he didn't want to answer that.
