With respect, Madam Chair, I'm sorry, but during the last budget consultations, for instance, I received a call from two organizations that are very strong women's organizations. They had not been given time at the table at that point. I asked to lobby the finance committee to see if they would be able to get in, because they had chosen a certain number and then closed the doors.
I don't really want to put this off, because it is far too important. We don't know where we're going tomorrow after the budget today. We have no idea. I really would like to leave behind some marker for the next committee that comes in. I don't think asking the Standing Committee on Finance to work with us on some pre-budget consultation process is revolutionary. I would really like to leave it--
