I have a question on why the motion wants to sort of jam this in during a non-sitting week instead of during the regular course of our committee business. What is the early urgency to this, given this isn't going to be approved, obviously, in the immediate term, with three reviews pending?
Pierre put forward the permit economy and it was amended to be broader as it relates to competitiveness, including the Competition Act reform. This isn't the only acquisition that might be of concern if one cares about competitiveness. Obviously there was a proposed acquisition of Longo's by Empire, which owns Sobeys.
My view, at least, would be that it would make sense instead to maintain the study schedule that we have and to maybe expand the scope of that Conservative motion, but I think Brian is right. Both of these are kind of related and they are both Conservative motions. Maybe we could, say, look at competition issues including these two case studies and add a couple of meetings to the existing study that we have. [Technical difficulty—Editor] forward and then we don't have this urgency, this emergency meeting.
I don't really understand the urgency in a non-sitting week, given the timeline.
