I'll answer your question as simply as I can.
This is an issue that we've now been at for 14 hours, by last count. I'm of the opinion that we need to continue this. I think this is an important issue. I think the committee, clearly by its actions of 14 hours of debating this particular motion, sees it as important and that's why.... Maybe some members don't, but, in my opinion and discretion as chair, I believe that it's an important issue for this committee to be seized with, and that's why I called this meeting.
Thank you.
Ms. Lapointe, you have the floor.
