I can't agree more with the speakers before me. Definitely, Mr. Martin has brought up several times, and the minister has said, that he really wants to have the poverty study go ahead, and I think he's waited patiently or long enough. So I think we should take his poverty study and definitely put it in the queue.
I think we should get on with the employability study. As Mr. Savage articulated so very well, we have to have Bill C-265 done before February 8, and then the poverty motion that Mr. Martin has called for.
So I'd like us somehow to stick to that. That's it, and nothing else; we should clear the agenda and do these four things. We should get the employability study done; we should leave some room for the minister, who has agreed to come here, to speak about the estimates, and I don't think there's a problem with that; we should do Bill C-265; and then we should go right into the poverty study.
Can we just stick to that? Is there a way we can confine this so that we don't have any more hijacking of this committee by anything else, but do the very important employability study first and foremost; have the minister here, which sounds like it's a good idea; and then do Bill C-265 and the poverty study.
Can we find a way to put that in stone?
