Okay. I don't know if PS Turnbull or committee members....
MP Ste-Marie is asking about the capital gains legislation that would come to us and if it has even been tabled yet—

Chair, I think committee members know that I can't speak to and don't know exactly when legislation will be introduced, but all members would get notice at the same time when a piece of legislation is introduced in the House.
The member probably heard that the Minister of Finance spoke to that today in question period. If he was paying attention, I think she actually said something about the timing.

Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'm not only happy but deliriously relieved to not sit on Thursday.

I'm in Vancouver. I was up at five in the morning on Friday and Monday.
We've all sat for a lot of hours in the last five days.
Could we get a notice from the clerk, very quickly, on what we're doing next week, so that we can get some witnesses in? That would be very helpful. I'm not sure what we're doing next Tuesday and Thursday, but if we could find that out tomorrow and then maybe have a deadline of Thursday to get witnesses in, it would give the clerk something that he often doesn't have, which is some time to contact witnesses to schedule them.
That would be helpful.

Thank you, MP Davies. We'll take note of that.
Members, we are adjourned. We are not here on Thursday. We'll see everybody next week.
