With that, folks, we're out of time.
I really would like to thank all of the witnesses for being here with us today. Your testimony has been very helpful, even with some of the exciting exchanges. We have some really good information, and I appreciate the information you provided that will help inform our report, which we're hoping to get done before the end of the session.
I'm hoping the members will indulge me. We have the resources available to us for five minutes, and I have three quick things I'd like to try to address.
We can let the witnesses go now, with a huge “thank you” for your support.
The first item I wanted to share with the committee members is to Charlie's point. We have the Canadian Labour Congress scheduled to appear on May 16, so they are on the list.
The second thing is that a few people had requested to attend the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada's mineral exploration and mining convention. Today is the deadline for us to approve anyone attending, and it has to be submitted by tomorrow to be approved at the Liaison Committee by Friday.
We haven't had a chance to canvass all of the committee members. We've developed a budget for the full committee to go, and that was circulated to people during question period today. You should have had a chance to look at it. I'm wondering if I can get somebody to move this and then we'll vote on putting it forward. We will then canvass people, and we can always reduce it. It's easier to do that, as opposed to doing a smaller budget and approving it upward.
Go ahead, Charlie.
