Can I propose the language? Based on what's been said, we can say for proposed subsection 25.1(2): “For greater certainty, paragraph (1)(c) includes an investment to acquire, in whole or in part, the assets of an entity referred to in that paragraph.”

I will repeat it once more: “For greater certainty, paragraph (1)(c) includes an investment to acquire, in whole or in part, the assets of an entity referred to in that paragraph.”

Can it be sent in writing and repeated once more very slowly, Mr. Gaheer?
Liberal
Iqwinder Gaheer Liberal Mississauga—Malton, ON
I will repeat it once more. I'm sorry. I talk really fast.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
You talk fast, indeed. For the interpreters, also, it's always good to speak slowly.

Iqwinder Gaheer Liberal Mississauga—Malton, ON
Proposed subsection 25.1(2) would read, “For greater certainty, paragraph (1)(c) includes an investment to acquire, in whole or in part, the assets of an entity referred to in that paragraph.”

The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
You've all heard the terms of the subamendment, and it will be sent in writing, Mr. Gaheer, to the clerk, please.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
We've all heard the subamendment, so that's a subamendment to your own amendment.
Wait just one second. You can't—
Conservative
Rick Perkins Conservative South Shore—St. Margarets, NS
I remove mine, and I'll.... Do I remove my subamendment?
Can we propose that as my subamendment? You can't amend your own amendment.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
Yes.
We have Mr. Perkins' subamendment as outlined by Mr. Gaheer. You've all heard the terms. In looking around the room, I believe there is unanimous consent.
(Subamendment agreed to)
(Amendment as amended agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])
There are no more amendments on clause 12. Are there, Mr. Turnbull?
Liberal
Ryan Turnbull Liberal Whitby, ON
No. There aren't on that, but I was going to seek unanimous consent to reopen clause 4.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
We need to adopt clause 12 first.
(Clause 12 as amended agreed to)
I recognize Mr. Turnbull.
Liberal
Iqwinder Gaheer Liberal Mississauga—Malton, ON
Thank you, Chair.
I know we agreed, before we took the break for the summer, to revisit some of the clauses as well and seek unanimous consent. We just want to seek your guidance and the clerk's guidance as to what order you would prefer.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
Based on my notes, we need unanimous consent to get back to clause 4 and the amendments you proposed in LIB-0.1 in the package.
We need unanimous consent for the amendment that was proposed by Mr. Perkins to clause 7. I'm not sure if it was moved, but it was sent around.
Conservative
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Joël Lightbound
It was in the original package, but it was not moved before we finished clause 7. We'll need unanimous consent for clause 8 for LIB-0.2.
That's basically the order I had in mind. Is that fine with everyone?
