I appreciate the effort made to make these changes. I think the motion as amended is still not reasonable and I don't know that it helps to advance a more productive approach to covering these issues at committee, whether it's the cost of living or anything else.
I do think that the committee's time is.... When I think about some of the priorities before us, I think about pre-budget consultations. I think about where we can hear from folks about how they believe government and all of us as MPs can address the cost of living and other issues that are important to people. There are other things that members of the committee may want to study, but I do think that this is the path forward, rather than a sudden emergency call for the minister to appear, especially given that the minister did appear near the end of our last session. That's my position.
