We could go all day, and I don't want to go all day. If that's the will of the committee, I think we're going to get a reasonable consensus here. All we'd have to do is change what's in front of us to three, and that, it seems to me, would at least get a consensus.
Before I do that, let me respond to Monsieur Cardin's additional point, and that was being recognized. For those new to this committee, with me as the chair.... Our previous practice has been that I would ask the clerk to watch for those who wished to speak. This is not when we're hearing witnesses, but in the normal course of the committee. I'm paying attention to whoever is speaking and I don't always catch who would like to speak.
So if you would like to address the committee, get the attention of the clerk, and the clerk will keep the list so I don't have to do that. I'll just look over and see who's next. At this moment I see Mr. Cannan, Mr. Cannis, and Mr. Harris next on the speakers list. So I will go in that order. But I would also say that just because you're on the list, you don't have to speak if it looks as if we're getting a consensus. Otherwise we'll never get done.
But having said that, Monsieur Cardin, have I interpreted correctly that you are prepared to accept the proposal in front of us, with the minor exception that it's three rather than four? One government, one opposition.
