Thank you, Mr. Chair. This has turned out to be a most frustrating way to represent our constituents. I must get that on the record. We've heard many people around this table talk about how important it is that we get this completed and get some solid support behind these industries so that they know how they can move forward. The longer this is filibustered.... And I would argue that I'm certainly glad this isn't televised, because no one should have to see what has gone on here today.
We're trying to complete a piece of legislation that enables a very good and a very solid bill. I listened to our ambassador to the United States last night talk about the challenges that he and other individuals went through to get this softwood lumber agreement in place. We all recognize that. We also recognize how important it is that we get it completed.
We also recognize that there should be some healthy debate—not filibustering, Mr. Chair, but some healthy debate. That is why we've suggested three minutes per member, to get our points out in succinct fashion, and I would like to offer that this will provide enough time for all of us.
Now, if it is appropriate, I would like to ask you to call the question.
