Mr. Chair, could I say a few words just before we move on to Ms. Simson's motion? I do not know how long we will deliberate; it could be brief or a long time. I wanted to make a rather special comment to the members of the committee. The committee members could make this same comment.
Our analyst, Élise Hurtubise-Loranger, who has always done outstanding work for the committee, is leaving us today because she is expecting her baby in a few days. This will be her last day with the committee. I truly want to thank her for her work and wish her all the best with her baby in the coming months, which will no doubt be wonderful.
I want to thank you and wish you all the best.
That was what I wanted to say. I did not want us to end the meeting quickly without having said it publicly. Thank you.
