Yes, it is the 17th. Let's get our days straight.

Is everybody all right with that? So we can put to bed the issue of having the minister because we have decided we're going to do a meeting of the steering committee, which will be all of us.

Mr. Clerk, are there any further housekeeping items or things that have to be done today?

4:35 p.m.

The Clerk

I hope not.

I have one point of clarification on what you just said. When you said “which will be all of us”, you were meaning...?

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

The steering committee. It would just be a meeting of the steering committee on that Wednesday.

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

I think we all should be open to listening to each other's thoughts, whether or not you're on the steering committee. I think the participation of all members is important, and if you have some.... Granted it all comes back to this committee anyway as a whole, but I think in the discussion, it's always open and welcome.

There is no further discussion and no further work to be done.

Thank you all very much. Have a wonderful break week, and we will see you all on Wednesday, February 17.
