I call the meeting back to order.
We were on Mr. Perkins' subamendment to Mr. Turnbull's proposal.
However, I would like to start by thanking Mr. Dufresne, Ms. Ives and Mr. Maguire for being here. I apologize for the turn of events. These things happen in parliamentary life. I'm sure we'll have an opportunity to invite you back. Anyway, our study of Bill C‑27 has a long way to go, as you can see. Thank you very much. You're free to go, if you wish.
We can now resume debate on Mr. Perkins' subamendment.
To remind members, it was to modify what has been circulated by Mr. Turnbull and add a deadline that conforms with the original motion that Mr. Vis proposed.
Go ahead, Mr. Perkins.
