Mr. Chair, I would then look to the New Democratic caucus. I appreciate one of the New Democratic members making reference to the issue of tradition. There is a need for us to look at tradition. I don't believe there is a case that can be cited. You have to ask why it's coming up now. I don't understand it.
I look to Mr. Dykstra in asking why it is, or whether he would consider an amendment that would put us into the first round. Quite frankly, I don't mind saying that we'll sit in a committee as long as they want to sit. If you want to sit for three or four hours so that every member gets the opportunity to ask a question, I'm okay with that. But I believe we need to ensure that all political parties represented on this committee are included in the first round. Is that not a fair request to make? This way you still get your members to ask the question. If you don't think that's fair, then at least tell me of another committee, especially in a majority situation, in which a third party has never been able to ask a question in the first round.
