Chair, I have an absolute right, under the terms of the motion....
I'm sorry, but I was trying to get my hand up. The functions are very difficult. I just get a hand up and get off mute to beg for something that in most committees, I have to say, is more automatic, which is to have a right to speak before my amendment is defeated.
I'm so sorry, Madam Chair. I'm sorry to be emotional, but I was so shocked there—
