Mr. Chair, just in the interest of getting to our witnesses as quickly as possible, what I'm going to suggest is the NDP said they want to entertain the study. They don't particularly like the language. We would invite them to bring forward their amendments. We'll vote on them in short order, and then we can get to our witnesses. I would invite them, if they have amendments to make that are relevant to the motion, to make those amendments. We will gladly vote on them.
Mr. Chair, we often do deal with motions at the beginning of the meeting, but it doesn't particularly matter, because if we're taking time from the beginning of the meeting or the end of the meeting, it's the same time lost to the witnesses. As we know just in terms of math, that's what we're doing. Let's invite any amendments. Let's have a little discussion, or whatever, that the NDP wants to have on them. We're willing to vote on them and the motion right now and move ahead.
