My intentions are not to do anything of the sort that Mr. Lamoureux is suggesting. I'm merely pointing out that we need to be fair to witnesses who come here. When they're making a presentation, if they aren't aware of or understand how it relates to the overarching security issue we're studying at committee, it puts them in an awkward position. It also puts me in an awkward position, as parliamentary secretary and lead on this side, to continually interrupt, or to question whether the discussion we're having is relevant to the study we're working through.
Rather than just be quiet and go through that process as he's presenting or as someone's asking questions, I thought it would be more polite to lay it out before the actual presentation started, so he would be aware, and also that I could, in all fairness, relate my concern to you. Obviously, you don't think it's a problem, so I'm going to assume it won't be.
