No problem. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First of all, I would like to thank Mr. MacGregor for proposing this emergency meeting. The Bloc Québécois didn't hesitate to sign the letter requesting this meeting, because this is an incredibly concerning issue.
Initially, I was afraid that if we called only the RCMP to testify before the committee, we wouldn't be able to learn more than what had already been revealed by the RCMP, given the ongoing investigation, of course. Now, I think the witness list is very reasonable. I think the various proposed witnesses will be able to tell us more.
I'm therefore in favour of the motion.
I do have a question, though, about the wording. It may just be a bad translation, but on the sixth item on the proposed witness list, the English version says “any former leadership candidates”, while the French version, if translated, says “all former candidates”. The words “any” and “all” don't have the same meaning.
I would like Mr. MacGregor to clarify something. Do we want to invite any of the candidates in the 2022 Conservative Party leadership race, or do we want to invite all of the candidates? I'd like some clarification on that.
That said, the Bloc Québécois is in favour of the motion.
