Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Chairman, I agree with Mr. Keddy's motion. It's well placed. I personally don't have a problem supporting it on our side as well. I do agree with his comment in terms of the decade he emphasized, and he's correct. I appreciate the fact that he indicated the minister will be here. I believe he will be here. As such, I will be moving an amendment, a friendly amendment, that will say “and that the Minister appear before the completion of the study on Bill C-2”.
We set certain parameters. We would like the minister to be before us as it's completed. I take the member's word that the minister will be here by Thursday, but you never know what could happen, and we might have to go to one more sitting.
