Thank you, Chairperson.
I want to speak about this for this reason. I want to put this out there because questions have arisen, and they pertain to the work we are doing. When the ministers don't answer our questions, it hinders the work we do. For example, if we get the correct or right answers for our questions, we can find solutions or strategize.
I asked Minister Vandal about three points. If he was able to answer my questions, I would be able to get more proper information. I would be able to ask questions of my constituents, and I would be able to ask more questions at this committee. However, when they don't answer questions, it essentially stops my role as a member of Parliament. When they don't answer the questions, I am not effectively doing my job.
I agree that the ministers should be answering questions. If they are properly answering the questions, we as members of Parliament would be able to effectively do our work. We need to inform our constituents of the work we are doing. When they are not answering questions, there are roadblocks.
I urge the ministers to answer questions so we can effectively do our work as members of Parliament. For the work we are doing today in the committee, I would like to see this.
