Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would consider that particular amendment to be friendly.
I just want to take this opportunity to say thank you to everybody who sits on our subcommittee for organizing a very good schedule. I would like to thank Mr. Albas, Mr. Ste-Marie and Mr. Blaikie. I think the way we prioritized our issues, including the clause in the subcommittee report that says this particular measure is going to give tax savings to Canadians by giving them a doubling of their GST.... It's an absolute priority.
Although I'm willing to sit longer on Monday if necessary, I would expect that, if there is agreement and that list is the fulsome list, we could probably get testimony from the minister and the PBO, along with clause-by-clause, committed within our normal time period. I'm certainly willing to sit longer if necessary, to get it done by Monday so we can proceed to pre-budget consultations on Wednesday.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
