Ron Cannan Conservative Kelowna—Lake Country, BC

I'm willing to meet on Thursday. When will we know if our meeting is cancelled? Or are we cancelling it for sure?

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

I guess we can't make assumptions. I don't know when the House is going to break. Maybe you have some other information that I don't.

11:20 a.m.

Conservative

Ron Cannan Conservative Kelowna—Lake Country, BC

No, I don't. I'm just wondering if the clerk has any agenda for Thursday and if we're meeting.

11:20 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

Actually, there is no meeting planned for Thursday. We anticipated that the House would not be sitting.

Since this is the last meeting before Christmas, I'd like to wish all members of the committee and all staff a Merry Christmas. Have a great break.

This meeting is adjourned.
