Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I'm getting back to proposing my motion. I informed my colleagues about this prior to the start of this meeting.

Mr. Chair, I'm going to get straight to the point and reread my motion, notice of which was filed today:

That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(i), the committee invite the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry to testify about the 2023‑2024 federal budget, at the latest on Thursday, April 27, 2023, and for one hour.

Mr. Chair, my motion is relatively straightforward and clear. I want to ask the minister to come and explain the absence, or even neglect, of investment in the last 2023‑2024 federal budget.
