Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It is out of order. With all due respect, I do not believe we can move a new amendment to the motion. We are currently discussing Mr. Barrett's proposed amendment to remove the second paragraph. Mr. Fergus has already indicated that he is in favour of it. So I do not understand why he is proposing an amendment on something else. We are not there yet.
Can we move on? It is now 1:10 p.m. I know that people have made a habit of filibustering on this committee since last fall, but I confess I do not have a lot of patience for that kind of childish behaviour. Afterwards, if Mr. Fergus wishes to make another amendment, he can do so. One thing is clear, however: he has told us that he supports the amendment before us. So I want us to vote on it.
