I want to extend a hand to the other side because I have known Liberal ministers who were much less available than the current Minister of Transport. It must be acknowledged that he has made himself very available. I would like to invite him and ask to meet with him for two hours, if that would be agreeable to him. I repeat, some Liberal ministers were much less available than he has been. If we can meet with him for two hours, all the better. I would like for him to know ahead of time the reasons why we are inviting him, i.e., to discuss planned expenditures for one hour and a half and Bill C-7 for the remaining half hour. If he agrees to that, that would be fine, but I would not want to browbeat him, because he could revert to the habits of the former Liberals. That would complicate things somewhat.
