Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
As I said earlier, I wish to introduce this procedural motion. I wished to speak to it at the last meeting, but because of lack of time, I wasn't able to.
We are sitting here today listening to witnesses on an extremely important study we have undertaken. I don't think there's anybody around this table who wants to do less than a full study, a full hearing of witnesses who would do justice to this study. We have heard from a lot of people here. We have a physician who sits on this committee, and we have a person of aboriginal descent on this committee. We have those who are extremely interested in land use planning and infrastructure issues. All of us, I believe, have to some extent questioned the input that went into the new Canada food guide and whether there was enough consultation.
I'm putting forth this motion, Mr. Chairman, because I feel we need to hear from health professionals, we need to hear more from the first nations and Inuit groups, we need to hear what provincial initiatives are out there, and we need to hear about the impact of our built environment and infrastructure, so we can develop a full report that will have input from everybody. By my best estimate, we have probably spent about $100,000 to this point on this study, and I would hate to see us put forward a report that is not complete.
Therefore, I would move this motion. I won't read it, as it is lengthy, but everybody has a copy of it now.
