The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter

I have one point, Mr. Valerio.

We did ask the BDC to come, and the response we got was that ISED would make that representation. We ran into the same thing last year with ACOA.

From my perspective, as chair—we didn't have time to get into an argument about it—when we ask for BDC, we expect BDC, and you with them. You can tell them, in the future if we ask for BDC, we expect BDC to be here.

Thank you.

There are no further questions then.

Do we have agreement to go until 5:50? Votes are at 6:00. We have 26 minutes left. Do we have agreement to move forward?
