Mr. Chair, I have a point of order.
I think this is the exact issue we went through, Mr. Chair, and sadly the Conservatives were on the losing end of this last time. I would respectfully ask that the give-and-take that we've established, which I think has worked very well in this committee, be respected here. My colleague has asked the minister multiple times for a very short answer to the question, which to me would be a number that's somewhere between zero and eight gazillion. I don't think we need an explanation. It's a number.
Thank you, sir.
