I'm not worked up, Mr. Chair. I would challenge that assertion. I think every member of Parliament should be worked up about all the money that's been spent, and money that I voted for, but now, as parliamentarians, we have the responsibility to scrutinize how that money is being spent and we need those ministers to appear.
We're trying to do this in good faith together. We cannot amend those motions. We have a right. We agreed to it as a committee and we have to stick to our guns and do the work we were elected to do. If some members don't want to do that, they can have someone else sub in. I want to know how money is being spent. I want to spend time on the estimates. I want to know what department officials are doing. That's why we're here. We can't take more away from that than we already have.
