I just want to return to my previous comments where I said that we spent quite a bit of time at committee discussing having two studies happen concurrently. We have our agenda in place already on the calendar.
I did reference earlier that likely the public accounts committee will be speaking to and having the Auditor General to speak on her report, so I don't see what the additional benefit would be for the Auditor General to also come to HUMA when we already have so many important studies in the queue. We're inviting witnesses shortly, and we want to hear how the programs we have in place at the federal level can help.
The temporary foreign worker program has been in the news quite a bit. That is the next study we are going to be looking at. I think it is a much better use of the committee's time to start listening to witnesses on that study than to have the Auditor General come to speak to her report when we know—at least, it's most likely—that public accounts will be looking at that and having her speak to that committee.
I don't see what the benefit is of duplicating that work at our committee, so I am appealing to my colleagues at this committee to vote this motion down.
