I'm not a regular member of this committee, but if the committee is going to be discussing this on Tuesday, I would hope that we could provide some feedback by the end of the month, but probably not before.

Given the clearer understanding, Ms. Bélanger, of what the timelines are, I think the committee can provide its input by, at a minimum, the end of the month.
If committee members agree, just leave it with me for Tuesday. I might be able to fit in a bit of time to deal with this, and we'll go from there.
Is that okay, Ms. Bélanger?

It is perfect. Thank you very much. It was most enjoyable.

—chomping at the bit to get in. I see you shaking your head. No, you weren't.
Thank you for coming in and providing your time to the committee today to explain the proposed changes.
That's all the business that we have. Stay warm, everyone. Have a great weekend, and we'll see you on Tuesday.
The meeting is adjourned.
