I didn't choose to talk out the last eight minutes, Mr. Reid.

Oh, that's the reason you asked Ms. Sahota to join the speakers list, then.

There's actually a substantive reason. I won't be available on Thursday, unfortunately, so if we come back to the motion, I simply want our side to have the opportunity to respond.
Look, I will simply wrap up. I actually thought that both theses from Mr. Graham and Mr. Reid were particularly educational. For a lot of the substantive points that I had originally wanted to address, I thought Mr. Graham did an excellent job in covering them.
I know that at the last meeting, David, you had a lot of commentary about competency. I think David Graham did a great job in terms of highlighting that at the end of the day we are bound by a particular set of constitutional rules that require us to ultimately deal with the matter we are ultimately trying to deal with.

You already know our position. I know that we're at the one o'clock point, so I will simply cede the floor to I believe Mr. Christopherson and then Ms. Sahota when the matter comes back.
