Maybe we should put Monsieur MĂ©nard's motion and let it sink or float, and then the steering committee could address this.
We're actually proposing a sequence of three hearings under this amendment, when we haven't done any footwork or planning on what the meetings would consist of. We don't have a work plan, and it's only six days away. It really is the kind of thing that should be sorted out at the steering committee. I realize it's been there and it's come back.
As it is, the motion is a motion for future business. It's also a comment on what the government should or shouldn't do, and it's really too much. On the intent of it, I'd like to get into the issue, but I can't support the motion as it is now.
If the member wants to see his motion put now, the chair might put it, without the amendment or with the amendment. I'll vote accordingly.
