Thank you very much, Mr. Bergeron.
We have on the floor procedurally, Madam Clerk, a subamendment to Mr. Oliphant's amendment of the main motion, the way I've understood it.
What I'd like to ask colleagues, just in light of the clock.... I'm sensing interest on the part of members to move the conversation forward and to be constructive. I'm also sensing some frustration.
There is some committee business before us, as I've mentioned before. Is there a willingness on the part of the committee to continue this discussion for another 10 minutes to see where it goes, or should we break off now and schedule to revisit? I just want to get a sense from members in terms of where we are with respect to this afternoon's timeline, the thoughts that are before us now and what could be potential solutions to the discussion.
We could run this right to the end of the clock, and we will lose any opportunity to address, I think, some important business that will keep us moving forward, including issues with respect to the agenda for this week, but there may be thoughts to the contrary. I just want to survey quickly, outside of the speakers list that I currently have, the view of the committee in terms of what we should do this afternoon.
