It's on Mr. Genuis's point of order, and I'm very glad he raised it.
I did notice that the time has started, and I think it's really important that it's on the record. However, we do have many people here, many more than is normal. I know it takes a lot to set it all up. However, I would raise the question on whether we are limiting reflection on the amendment, because at 8:30 we can continue. I think that 8:30 was the time we agreed on in order to follow the House order. That's our understanding. We understood in the past that sometimes things start later because there are so many....
Look at how many people are around the table. Look at how many people are here tonight. They all wanted to make sure it was all done properly, but at 8:30 the House told us we start, so we're certainly ready to switch over.
I'm hoping we'll have it all done by 8:30, on goodwill, so 8:30 may not be necessary, but that all depends on what people do. I'm more than willing to start moving into the second phase, because I think Canadians expect us to get something done.
I appreciate your ruling, Chair.
