I was just going to reinforce the point that that has been the tradition of the House, and also of other committees, such as the industry or innovation committee at times.

In fact, I would encourage you to go back in Hansard and look at when Mr. Christopherson chaired this committee, and I'm sure you'll find there was an occasional comment made. Thank you, though, for the question.
Go ahead, Ms. Mendès.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
To go back to your point, Vance, Phil McColeman is the only one here right now who was with us then, but this is very much how the British committees work. The chairs have a great deal of leeway in how they ask and direct questions to witnesses. We are trying to become a little more British, so we're adopting that approach here.
