Thank you.
I'd benefit from hearing the original motion from Ms. Sahota, and I would be grateful if we could commit to that. Then we could figure out the loose ends.
While I have the floor, I'll say that there's one question that I do have on the main motion. Why are we starting with this one and not with gender-based analysis? I wasn't aware of there being a debate on the floor around that. That's one question.
The other one is just a bit of a reality check on the ability to scope out witnesses if indeed it is something that we can always add as a new idea if a witness emerges. If it truly is open and organic, then great, but my reality check for next week is that a lot of our young staff have kids on spring break, so they're not going to be in a position to do the research for us. Also, some of us are leaving the country—fortunately to be with the United Nations delegation—so we're going to be short of some of our Status of Women staff as well.
If Thursday is the deadline to get new witnesses in, great, but to me, with the seven industry witness panels that we have set up here, it feels like we're actually going to have quite a lot to chew on for the next couple of meetings as far as testimony and inquiries go, so I'm not sure that we'll benefit from rushing the work on the NGO witnesses.
I may be the only person who is in the position of having a challenge in coming up with a Thursday or Wednesday deadline, but I'll ask the question on whether we actually need to rush that part of it that quickly.
Thank you.
