We're not in a real hurry. But if we gave you too much time, you might get busy with other things, and we want it while it's still fresh.
If you could provide us with that assistance, it would be greatly appreciated. We look forward to it. You could provide it to the clerk.

I just want to be a public servant, which is what I am. Public servants are supposed to supply information and assist. We don't set policy. Some of these items are generally phrased. It would be something for the Minister of Public Safety and all of those folks to comment on.

Your comments on matters that you feel you would like to make comment on are all we're asking for.
I think you are in two extremely important areas. And in terms of the public concern, it would certainly be with regard to policing intelligence and transborder areas, etc. So you're it; you're our principal witness in this regard--other than those who study it. You're on the ground.
Thank you kindly, colleagues. I appreciate your indulgence.
We're adjourned.
