Mr. Chairman, that is the very least we need to do, in my opinion. We will support the Liberal motion, simply because it is aimed at having a calm debate about the issue that was decided on on June the 7th. We need to have that debate.
Frankly, you have to admit that you have a responsibility, which is to apply the decisions that are made through a majority vote in the committee. That is your responsibility. I understand the arguments from Marleau-Montpetit quoted by my colleague, the parliamentary secretary, to the effect that there needs to be a balance at every committee meeting. However, what is even clearer and more important is that decisions made need to be complied with. It seems to me that there has been a major breach in the implementation of the committee's decisions. In that context, I do not see why we would move ahead with a study of this issue, even though witnesses are here, when a decision was made on June 7th.
I want us to have this discussion to basically reverse the debate. I hope that we can listen to one another without having to vote on Mr. McGuinty's motion. I think that it is still possible. This is a key point. We cannot go ahead and study this issue without having discussed the agenda.
