Mr. Chair, I have just a couple of quick points.
What we're seeing here through this motion is, clearly, really a filibustering of the committee.
I do want to come back to the same point that Bill made with regard to the Prime Minister's letter, which quotes the following:
“Ministers need to understand clearly that they are accountable, responsible and answerable for all the actions of their exempt staff.”
We've had Mr. Togneri before this committee, and he clearly admitted that he pulled back access to information. I wonder why his minister....
You know, this government has a habit of blaming staff. Now they've moved to a different strategy. I wonder why Mr. Togneri is still there or why his minister is still there if they're clearly accountable.
Mr. Chair, to try to move on to what the motion really was before we got diverted here, I would call the question.
