Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I followed that exchange with interest because, as my colleagues will remember, I have an outstanding motion. That motion asks that we invite the headhunter in question to appear, the one who suggested the candidacy of Mr. Ferguson, who himself said he did not apply.
In the spirit of cooperation that Mr. Galipeau evokes or invokes, perhaps it would be pleasant to see whether we could indeed have the headhunter appear in order to get to the bottom of the matter. I believe that is part of the work and duty of this committee. Notice to interested parties.
Talking about notices, I'm going to take the opportunity afforded me—and I thank you for it—to give another notice of motion, given the presence of some of our witnesses this morning. The clerk will obviously receive the following motion in due form.
That the Committee travel to Nunavut in winter 2012 to complete its tour of the territories begun in 2011 as part of the study undertaken in the 3rd Session of the 40th Parliament on the development of linguistic duality in northern Canada, and table a follow-up report in the House of Commons before the summer recess in 2012.
We'll see at the appropriate time.
