I just wanted some clarification about everything that's being discussed. Again, Mr. Blaikie may not be happy about the order of things.
When we invited the Governor of the Bank of Canada, it was agreed that he would appear alone for three hours. The wording of the motion is open to interpretation.
My personal interpretation was that a three‑hour meeting would be devoted only to the governor, without inviting anyone else to appear, for example, the Minister, in which case it would be an hour and a half for each guest. In my interpretation, that did not mean that the governor could not be accompanied by his usual staff. As far as I know, the governor always comes accompanied, and that's the way it's done. I had no problem with that.
I just want to make sure that only the governor will be invited to appear during the three hours, and that the committee won't invite other witnesses to talk about other subjects during that meeting.
