I'm amazed at this committee. It takes forever to debate a motion, something so simple. I even forget what I was going to say.
My point is very simple, Mr. Chairman. This makes it very clear. All it does is.... Ms. Lavallée, out of respect for you, I think, has put it in writing, but I think you already have all these powers as the committee chair. As a former chair, I think these powers are nothing additional. It just means that you should go ahead and perform your duty.
I am in favour of this motion, and I will be voting against Mr. Del Mastro's amendment. I think we should go ahead and call the question and vote on it, because we still have Mr. Goldstein to deal with.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
