Do we have copies of the motion so that I read it? I'm not a very aural person; I like to read a lot of stuff. I'd like to get a copy of the motion to be able to know what I'm actually voting on, to be honest, because it is very important to me. I'm very interested in doing this. I don't remember all of the witnesses who were potentially going to be called. I would like to make sure that we would have the provincial authorities from Saskatoon, from all of Saskatchewan, who might be involved in this or might have information to share with us. I'd also be interested in hearing from the College of Medicine.
The question we also need to debate is how large we wish to make this study. This could go on for a very long time and look at a lot of issues. I think we need a bit more time to think about this. We can debate this publicly and how many days we wish to debate this issue, whether it's another two, three, four, or eight sessions. There is a lot of information that's missing and things we don't know about, which is rather unfortunate. We have innuendo in the media. I'm interested in whether there is an investigation and what has occurred potentially in that investigation. I'm not sure what the RCMP could share, I'm not sure what the justice department could share, and I'm not sure how that relates to the civil case.
There are an awful lot of questions where, if I had a couple more days, or a week.... I don't think it's going to change the course of history if we wait just one more week to lay out a bit of a working plan for us. We could have a discussion amongst the people who really run the committee, who I'm sure are Ms. McLeod, Mr. Casey, as well as Mr. Davies, to lay out a good working plan for us. Obviously, there are the questions of where are we going to end, and how much work can we get done efficiently to ensure that we offer justice to the women?
I suspect there won't be people doing any more sterilizations in Canada in this way. There are probably people who are actually quite nervous within the health care system, I'm certain, and who are worried about lawsuits. Nonetheless, there are some potential witnesses we could call.
I'm concerned that if we set the list now.... I know there was an amendment and we could add more witnesses. How many people were on that witness list so far?
