I'd like to make a brief point of order.
I wouldn’t want this to be seen as a political statement at all, but I’d like to acknowledge the work of one person, whom I consider a friend.
Over the past few months our colleague Mr. Fast has done an exceptional job on this committee. Consistently hard working and well prepared, he has asked thoughtful questions. I’ve been greatly inspired by Mr. Fast’s work on this committee over the past few months, and even prior to the last election. I just want to thank him for his contributions and am tipping my hat to him.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
