I am the newest addition to this committee. I am the youngest permanent member. Yet this is the fourth meeting where Mr. Christopherson, with all due respect, has repeated the same thing. I feel that the Standing Orders allow you, Mr. Chair, to cut off any needless repetition, such as the point that Mr. Christopherson is making. Everything he says is about the letter that we have just agreed on. With all his experience on the committee, he should know that, if this matter was so important—and it is—it should have been dealt with a long time ago.
We are at the end of the session and what I am asking, Mr. Chair, is that you use your powers as chair to cut off this repetitive speech. We have all heard these arguments. I respect them, I hear them, but I do not need to hear them six, seven or ten times.
