Thank you, Mr. McTeague.
I just want to note that there's nothing to preclude the committee, if the committee agrees today, from meeting next week. There are rules and procedures in place to ensure that the meeting can be held. The vice-chair would have to assume the chair in order to hold the meeting, but there's nothing to preclude that meeting from being held. If the meeting is held, I will make you my commitment as chair that I'll work with the clerk and the other House of Commons staff to ensure that the witnesses you want to appear will appear. So at that point, it's just a question of having the vice-chair assume the chair.
Mr. Bouchard.
