On the schedule, Mr. Chair, I hope the Canadian Gas Association shows Parliament and this committee some respect and makes an appearance as it was requested to.

Are you asking that we write them back?

Michael Chong Conservative Wellington—Halton Hills, ON

I'm asking that they appear in front of our committee as they were requested to. Hopefully, next time, they show up, as opposed to cancelling late on a Friday afternoon, which is immensely disrespectful to you, Mr. Chair, and to the rest of the members of this committee.

Thank you.

The Chair Liberal Ali Ehsassi

Absolutely. This point is well taken.

We were about to adjourn this committee.

Garnett Genuis Conservative Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB

Mr. Chair, I think it would be good for us to have some discussions off-line about Ms. McPherson's proposal. Obviously, I think it's a worthy situation.

While I have the floor, I just want to give a verbal notice. This is going to take 10 seconds; it's just so it's down. It's a verbal notice of a motion that the committee report to the House that it calls on the Government of Canada to immediately revoke the waiver of Russian sanctions granted for the export of Gazprom turbines.

Thank you.

4:45 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Ali Ehsassi

Thank you.

On that point, the meeting stands adjourned.
