Royal Galipeau Conservative Ottawa—Orléans, ON
I know there have been complaints about our chatting here, but it was all in the spirit that Mr. Julian has been trying to engender, which is compromise. I'd like to propose a compromise, which is that the system I have proposed be put in effect for the fall session. It would not be for four years but for a tryout of two and a half months, for the fall session, and we would review it afterward.
If you guys are willing to go along with this, we can solve it right now.

Mr. Julian, do you have a comment before I adjourn the meeting?

Mr. Chair, it's not really a compromise.
Before I speak, I would like to offer that if Mr. Bélanger did propose that we could look at another format for an hour-long meeting and if the ministerial party is willing to accept the amendment of Monsieur Aubin--

The Chair Conservative Michael Chong
I'm going to interrupt you as chair. There is no clear consensus here.
The meeting is adjourned.
