I have a few points.
As the chair I'm going to play out one thing, which is that when a member introduces a motion and the motion is actually addressed at committee, the motion becomes the debate of the committee.
When that motion is adopted, as it was in the case of Monsieur Mai, as it was in the case of Mr. Brison, and as it was in the case of Mr. Hoback, it then becomes the committee's motion and the committee's study.
We may want to refer to “the member and the motion” but we should actually refer to “our study”. So the income inequality is our study, the tax evasion is our study, and Mr. Hoback's motion is now our study as the finance committee. I should have pointed that out earlier. Once we adopt a motion and it becomes our study, we should probably stop debating it because we've already adopted it and it is our study and we all should support that study and work towards getting as much information as we can. I was perhaps remiss in not stating that earlier, but I think it's important to state it now.
I have Mr. Jean next, and Ms. McLeod, and Ms. Nash on this motion.
Mr. Jean, please.
