Michael Guglielmin Conservative Vaughan—Woodbridge, ON

Yes, it does.

However, the motion that we passed said that she was going to be appearing for two hours. Is that still the case? I heard one hour there.

The Chair Liberal Ben Carr

Those are the current times I have before me. We'll take it back to the minister's office. As you know, the committee doesn't have the ability to mandate that ministers adhere to the provisions of a motion that a committee passes, although I can certainly emphasize to the minister's team, through the clerk, that the committee did request a certain window of time and that we would encourage the minister and her team to do their best to accommodate that. For now, what I have are those two dates before us.

Michael Guglielmin Conservative Vaughan—Woodbridge, ON

Thank you.

Perhaps in those remarks you could just let the minister and her team know that it would be very important to Canadians that they appear for both hours. Given everything that we're facing and all the different pressures, I think Canadians want to hear from her.

The Chair Liberal Ben Carr

That's noted. Thank you, Mr. Guglielmin.

Colleagues, that brings us to the end of today's meeting. We'll see you again on Thursday.

The meeting is adjourned.
