A point of order, Mr. Chair.
Before we begin the clause-by-clause study, I would like to say that Mr. Ménard's proposal should be given serious consideration. From now on, when we have a government witness like Statistics Canada, we must have the document.
I am as irritated as Mr. Ménard. I would like the document and the accompanying text to be in our hands at least two or three days ahead of time. It is not like the witness is coming from Edmonton, this is a witness from the government. That means it is not someone that we have called, it is someone who works for the government.
Could you make a note that it is important that, if we want to do our job properly, we have to have documents like this in advance from now on, especially statistical documents. This one is 25 or 30 pages long. Let's have them ahead of time!
