Thank you, Chair. I appreciate your role today. Your role is to set the framework around this motion and the subamendment that was presented by Mr. Bergeron.
On the other side, I heard what Mr. Oliphant said at the very beginning. I think between what he said and what we've been hearing from different members on the government side, the narrative is really unclear on what the parameters of those discussions have to be. That's what is leaving everything in limbo here.
I would appreciate it if you would take the initiative as the chair and try to set clarity over this so that we don't have to run into interruptions here and there after 15 seconds. At the end of the day, we're talking about a very wide subject, a very important subject, that's dominating everything. It's dominating all our lives these days. That's the Ukrainian war. All of that is coming at the same time that we are in the middle of this conversation here.
Chair, the bottom line is that I believe it would be helpful if you could set those parameters in a clear way so that we could all work together. At the end of the day, I believe we need to be very constructive in what we're doing here, and I think we have a responsibility to do so. When I look to request that, I look at you, Chair.
