Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
A written version of the motion is available in English only, which we have sent to the clerk. I apologize. This motion was unanticipated from the perspective of the schedule. I did not think the answer coming back would be that none of these ministers would be available, which is what propelled us to move forward.
If I could ask the clerk's office to ensure that the motion is in both languages and provided to committee members, I would appreciate it. I apologize for that.
With respect to the amendment, I am good with either. I am good with making clear the intention. That was my original approach to it. I was told by the clerk that it's best to leave it to say that it's reported to the House, and that it would be understood. I respected that and accepted that.
I'm good with it either way. I thank Mr. Redekopp for offering the amendment to indicate the seriousness of the situation, and I'm hopeful that action will be taken by the ministers so that we don't, in fact, have to go to this length. I would rather not have to do that. I would rather they just showed up.
