Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My colleagues seem very passionate about the debate that has arisen around Mr. Rogers' motion, and I understand that. However, I would also like to point out to the members of this committee that one of the witnesses with us today travelled seven hours to be with us and paid for a hotel room. We also have another witness waiting.
I think regional air travel is a very important topic.
In that context, I'd like to know if committee members would agree to suspend the debate on Mr. Rogers' motion, at least temporarily, until we hear from the witnesses and have an opportunity to ask them questions. We can always come back to this debate towards the end of the meeting.
I think it would be a good idea to ensure that our witnesses have not travelled here today needlessly.
Thank you.
