Mr. Chairman, I want to make sure of one thing.
I'll speak in French and let people hear the translation.
Mr. Lemay, who takes part in the regular work of the committee, will not be able to travel to Vancouver with us next Wednesday. For operational reasons which all of our colleagues understand, we do not intend to replace Mr. Lemay, but we want to ensure that pursuant to an implicit agreement, no motion which would lead parliamentarians to vote will be presented in Vancouver. May we conclude such an informal agreement so that I may reassure my whip, who like any good self-respecting whip is a tormented soul?
