I cannot support either one of these motions. A new mandate is out there for Status of Women. Human trafficking was difficult to get on this committee, and I'm happy that we have it and that we're studying it. We have had years of gender-based analysis studies, and we have a lot of valuable information that can be used.
This is a big surprise to the committee. We discussed this whole thing at the beginning, and we set a plan for the Status of Women so that we could get things done. In the first semester, until Christmas, we were going to study human trafficking. In the second semester, we were going to look at economic concerns. We've also put in extra meetings to address other issues we're dealing with.
I think this motion is a ploy to get us off the human trafficking issue, and I think it's unfortunate that political stripes have to come into something like this. I think we should stick to our plan, and I definitely would vote against this motion.
