Thank you. My last comment was, interestingly enough, that although I did not sign for Madam Payette when she was the Governor General, I did sign her expense reports when she was at NASA in Houston, as consul for Canada to Dallas.
On that note, I will, Mr. Chair, thank you very much for the opportunity to share some of my lived experiences relevant to the discussion we're having here today.

Mr. Chair, I hope that we've reached a consensus and then we may not have to vote on a motion if that's okay.
We would say that on Thursday, we will have a planning meeting. For Monday, we will ask you to call witnesses for the outsourcing study or whatever study we're able to draw witnesses for. We will have the officials here on Thursday after we receive the documents, and then we will go from there.
Mr. Chair, if it's okay, I'll withdraw my motion and hopefully there is a consensus for that.

That's wonderful. I think we have consensus for Thursday for planning. For Monday we'll look for witnesses for either outsourcing or diversity in procurement, and we should have the documents Monday and they should be distributed by then, but not in time for committee. Thursday we will resume the ArriveCAN study, with the witnesses from this Thursday.
Thank you, everyone, for your patience. I think we have agreement. We'll say so.
Translators, thank you very much. Clerks and analysts, thank you very much. We appreciate your patience in dealing with this rather awkward moment.
Thank you, everyone.
We are adjourned.
