Mr. Morin.

Dany Morin NDP Chicoutimi—Le Fjord, QC

More so out of respect for the two vice-chairs, I agree with my colleague Mr. Harris.

This may not be an appropriate discussion for today. Perhaps we can push it to Thursday, but if we can come to a friendly agreement, even better.

11:05 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Joy Smith

I think we'll all agree, probably. Yes.

Massimo Pacetti Liberal Saint-Léonard—Saint-Michel, QC

Madam Chair, I'm not a member of the committee, but normally committees have a 48-hour rule. I'm just wondering if that motion—

11:05 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Joy Smith

Conservative

Colin Carrie Conservative Oshawa, ON

If the committee would like, we can deal with it on Thursday. I'll table it today, and we'll go from there.

The Chair Conservative Joy Smith

Okay, we'll deal with it on Thursday.

Madam Sellah.

Djaouida Sellah NDP Saint-Bruno—Saint-Hubert, QC

Madam Chair, I just want to reiterate what my colleagues have said. If we knew exactly what the motion was about, we might agree.

11:05 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Joy Smith

I think we've agreed to discuss it on Thursday, right? We'll discuss it on Thursday. We don't want to make a big deal.

We will do committee business in camera on Thursday.

The meeting is adjourned.
