I've had an opportunity to meet with the science ministers. We've talked about innovation leaders throughout the world. One of the key things has to do with blockchain technology. There's an opportunity for us at this committee, when we talk about manufacturing and innovation, to be able to bring in one of the leading experts in the world to deal with this subject, and we are certainly missing an opportunity here.
Perhaps the government members do not realize that they get a chance to ask the majority of the questions and to look at issues that could benefit every one of us here in this committee. We're responsible for that. Yes, we have an opportunity to ask questions as well, and this is what we're asking for. Certainly, when you look at the types of expertise, I think we are proving today, as we look through this and speak to the witnesses, that we are prepared to get the best out of every opportunity we have.
To use this particular ploy at this point in time, Mr. Chair, I think is deplorable. You have an opportunity on this second motion to correct the mistake we made on the first one.
