Thank you, Mr. Chair.

This is an emergency and it's a public safety emergency. I don't think it's proper to have this motion now during this emergency. All the emergency services—the RCMP, the OPP, and the Ottawa Police Service—are engaged in this emergency that is going on in our country.

I believe we should hold off until this thing is over or whenever it is possible to get it done.
