Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll be using my time to introduce a motion.
The motion is related to Mr. Chong's Winnipeg lab motion. As I understand it, Mr. Chong spoke with you, Mr. Chair, on Monday and asked that you set aside one hour on Friday, which is tomorrow, to consider the matter. You declined this reasonable request.
Second, I emailed you yesterday asking you to set aside the last 15 minutes of this meeting to consider the matter of the Winnipeg lab motion, and I've not yet had the courtesy of a reply.
In the meantime, your government has announced a new non-parliamentary committee that has no obligation to Parliament, to report to Parliament or to be guided by Parliament. It is to be governed by retired justices and not elected Parliamentarians.
