Thank you, Monsieur Thériault.
I don't know how many times I've said it, but this is not the transportation committee; it's not the industry committee; it's not the finance committee. It is the access to information, privacy and ethics committee. Mr. Thériault is quite right, we are dealing with the question related to the finance minister's claim. That's what the motion is all about.
My expectation is that Mr. Imbleau, if he does appear—and we get to a point hopefully before midnight that we are able to come to an agreement on this motion that we've now been deliberating for 14-plus hours—he won't talk about the value and the virtue, as I've said many times, of the Alto rail system. That is not in question here. It is in relation to precisely what the motion says, and that's the finance minister's ethics screen and the impact it's had on him, or perhaps not. That will be up to Mr. Imbleau to determine through questioning that it is impactful with respect to the system. What we're deliberating and dealing with here is the ethics issue.
Ms. Church, I trust that you'll take Mr. Thériault's intervention with the sincerity in which it was intended. I expect that we're going to get back on the subamendment, which is to have Mr. Imbleau appear before the committee for two hours. In my opinion, I think you're on it, but I want you to continue to stay focused on it, please.
