Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We did have the opportunity to talk to StatsCan. They were here. We've dealt with that. I think what we have to recognize is that we cannot be sure that the other committees seized with this issue would be seeking out the testimony that committee members such as ourselves would want covered in this standing committee. Since we have the responsibility to deal with StatsCan, I think it's folly for us not to take on that responsibility.
This is where it should be studied. We don't know exactly where it might be. Maybe it's something that's proposed in the other committees. If it is, maybe they can stop that study and bring it back here where it belongs.
