Mr. Chair, you did not rule on whether Mr. Poilievre's amendment was in order. You did not say whether it was in order or not. To my mind, it is entirely out of order because it completely eliminates the witness we want to hear from.
I think Mr. Poilievre should move a new motion to have the minister appear. But his motion should be ruled out of order because it completely eliminates the other motion; it does not amend it.
