Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I feel that we do want to respect the time of our witnesses, so obviously, I won't spend valuable committee time talking about this. I want to express our disappointment that we weren't able to get the minister for the two meetings to come and talk.
We're now going to have half that time in a compressed meeting and that's unfortunate. We've talked about that. We've let our intentions be known, clearly. Unfortunately, we're going to lose this vote.
