Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Colleagues, welcome back from summer in your ridings.
Just looking at the motion and thinking back to all the people who actually wanted to come in front of this committee on this specific issue, the last thing we want to do is cut any of that short. We want to make sure we give them a lot of opportunity or a timed opportunity to actually make their requests. This does have tax implications. This has implications in terms of how charities go about doing their business. I don't think we want to shortchange them or not do a full study on this. So I think we're going to need the 12 meetings in order to do this properly. I'd ask the opposition members to consider that as we look at this proposal.
