First, I don't see the connection between the motion and what we are doing today. Second, my colleague talked about astronomical costs. As the Parliamentary Budget Officer just stated, the Conservatives had estimated that it would cost $26 billion. I think the member is on a slippery slope in terms of costs.
Finally, I understand that we are already scheduling a meeting with the Minister as part of the supplementary estimates study. So I don't see any need for this motion. Again, I'm wondering what the connection is between what we're doing today and inviting the minister to provide some rationale on spending as part of a shipbuilding study.
