It's just a comment. When they come to do the estimates at some of the committees I've been on, it's an opportunity to get the minister in front of you and hammer him or her on an issue rather than deal with the estimates, and it likely follows through with your comments. That's easier than understanding the estimates, and that's unfortunate.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
