Mr. D'Amours moves that the words “to ensure the continuation of this program” be added after the words “set in fiscal 2005-2006”.

Rob Anders Conservative Calgary West, AB

This may be an issue of interpretation or something, but I have it as “fiscal 2005-2006”, rather than “year”. Is there a difference between the English and French translation?

10:45 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Guy Lauzon

It should read “fiscal years”.

Yes, it would appear to be a typo in English. We will have to correct that.

Good point. Thank you.

10:45 a.m.

We have to check whether everyone agrees with Mrs. Barbot's motion to replace section 108(2) by section 108(3)(f).

Yes.

I would now like to inform all committee members that on Thursday, at 1 p.m., I will be at the Liaison committee to try and get the necessary support for our trip. It will then have to be submitted, and I hope we will receive permission from the House.

Very well done. Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
