Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Madam Minister, I would like to understand your point of view more clearly. Earlier, the Liberals claimed that the period allocated for studying the bill should be extended and that January 4 should be kept. This was one of the notices of motion that I proposed to the committee and that was supposed to be debated. Given the current content of the bill, I expect that, if the bill is not passed when we come back from the week's break, the committee will take a week to finish the study. We must be able to hear witnesses. It must also be presented to the Senate. At the beginning of your presentation, I thought that I understood that you are going to submit an amendment so that, on this coming January 4, people will not lose their opportunity to access the program.
