Mr. Chair, I think I've been clear in my opposition to the subamendment and clear in the opposition to needlessly calling executives from Alto or Mr. Imbleau to this committee, particularly prior to hearing from the Ethics Commissioner. If the committee is interested in hearing from the Ethics Commissioner, that is entirely appropriate. We have a sense from his ruling that there is “no risk of a conflict of interest and that a conflict of interest screen is not required”. We can hear from him about his considerations, how he arrived at that conclusion. That is obviously the most relevant testimony to the inquiry that's being sought here by the overall motion, but on the subamendment, I've been clear that we do not agree with it on the basis of substantive concerns about the propriety of calling Alto to an inquiry on this as a whole. Also, if the interest is in calling Alto's senior executives or Mr. Imbleau, by its very nature we would anticipate that not only would this committee want to explore ethics questions, but also questions relating to Alto as a project itself, which would properly reside elsewhere, as we've discussed.
Mr. Chair, I think I've been clear, but I will end my remarks. I'll ask to be returned to the speakers list, and I look forward to hearing from other colleagues.
