Thank you.
I will read--from the blues--what the vice-chair had to say, first in terms of who was supposed to come:
Mrs. Alexandra Mendes: Raitt and Paradis, and if they're not available.... Ms. Siobhan Coady: Jean and Wright. Mr. Paul Szabo: And if you still haven't got anybody, I think Snowdy. The Vice-Chair (Mr. Chris Warkentin): Is that clear enough? Okay, let's carry on.
Then Mr. Martin said as follows:
Secondly, I think we really need to conclude this study of the possibility of undue lobbying or undue influence of lobbyists over the administration of the green infrastructure fund. I'd like to be able to conclude it to the point where we as a committee might even issue a report to Parliament. So whatever vacancies we have.... Personally, I'm disappointed we can't get out of the main estimates on the 10th and the 12th.
So you wanted to get out of the main estimates on the 10th and the 12th.
You're the committee. You're masters of your own destiny. Whoever told you--
