Excuse me. I will not make a political speech, and it was not my intent to do so.
There is an amendment to the original motion put forward by Mr. Angus, which I am prepared to support. I hope and believe that my colleagues are also prepared to take action to ensure that we have limits on this and that the information is sent directly to the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner. We are also asking the Prime Minister to appear before the committee, which is a good compromise I'm proud to support.
I hope the committee rejects the subamendment. If it is defeated, I'm prepared to proceed with the vote so that we can move on and continue to do the good work that Canadians demand of us.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
