I'm definitely opposed to the idea of putting a timeline on this. We're doing a study on NATO now. Considering the list of witnesses that we have, it's still going to go on for quite some time. For what purpose are we asking the minister to come here? Is it so we can then give him recommendations, or are we asking him to come here just for the purpose of entertaining our own individual curiosities? We're in the middle of a study right now, and I hate the idea of diverting away from it, even just for one meeting. I want to get this study done, so I'm inclined not to support it, primarily based on the fact that it's being demanded to happen within the next month.
