Might I just make a comment here?
I've prided myself on being impartial. I've tried to be really, really fair and to work with everybody, and I don't wear my party hat in this committee at all.
Now, last year, the subcommittee worked really, really well. At the subcommittee, I did push the government's agenda, because it wasn't really a formal meeting, as Dr. Bennett has pointed out, and because we had to bring everything that we did back to committee. That's when the fisticuffs sometimes went on, because we really argued it, very, very clearly.
But I think there's some merit to.... Just from my point of view, I would like to be so separated from pushing anything. If I might provide some input here, I really think there's some merit in having members from each party, including the government side, because I would not like to be involved. You know what I mean?
It worked last year, but whatever the committee decides.... I'm just saying that I want it to run really smoothly and I don't want to be wearing a partisan hat at all in this committee.
Mr. Carrie.
