Chair, as I've expressed in the past, I don't particularly trust the Liberals' tactics.
This list is going to have to be approved. The recommendations of the steering committee will first have to be approved by this committee before there are any meetings. And it will not be by phone calls or e-mails. You've got to have a list approved by this committee.
That's why I was really concerned that the tactic of the Liberals was to slow down this whole process. We can't have any meetings.
I hope that's considered so we have something in place, not by consensus through e-mails and phone calls, but an actual list approved by this committee, which includes healthy debate. It may happen very quickly if the recommendations from the steering committee are fair and balanced, but if they're not, then everything grinds to a halt. And you can't have healthy debate if it's all coming back to the committee, if we're not trusting you and the clerk. It's all going to be decided and approved here. We're not talking of meetings until February.
Those are the results of what's been accomplished today.
Thank you, gentlemen.
