Thanks very much, Chair.

I think that having the Privacy Commissioner nominee appear is good. I have an amendment that I would like to move. I'd like the minister to appear for a second hour. I will send this in both official languages to the clerk as soon as I've read it.

The motion as amended would read, “That, pursuant to the order of reference of Thursday, May 27, 2021, and Standing Order 111.1(1), Daniel Therrien, nominee for the position of Privacy Commissioner of Canada, and Minister of Canadian Heritage Steven Guilbeault be invited to appear on Friday, June 11, 2021, each for one hour, in relation to Mr. Therrien's proposed appointment.”

I am sending that to the clerk right now.
