Thank you, Madam Chair.
A few minutes ago I was criticized for bringing forward a motion on having the minister come at a late date. I would say to you that this motion has been on the table since November 3. There had been every opportunity for this motion to have been brought forward at an earlier date. I don't know the motivation for bringing it forward at the last minute, but I'm certainly questioning it. I think it's incumbent upon us to finish what we started.
