You're absolutely right.
Mrs. DeBellefeuille, rest assured that I'm not involved in these discussions. I receive the conclusions and instructions from all committee members. My job is to help you and us, as members of Parliament, do the best job possible. We must strike a certain balance and sometimes make compromises.
If we want to proceed with the study of Bill C‑12 and Bill C‑8 and complete the critical study on border management, the analysts and the clerk must be able to do their job effectively. This is why I'm providing this opportunity this morning.
Mr. Caputo has the floor.
