I really appreciate the support on both sides. It's just a matter of logistics, it appears.
Given the level of support expressed here in the House, it might be conceivable to have witnesses and then do the clause-by-clause right after, maybe as soon as Monday, if indeed Mr. Hillier's visit Wednesday is the last official witness on the ombudsman--unless there is something set up for Monday. We won't be able to deal with anything from Michel until the end of January. So I suppose it makes sense, rather than to just push this off....
Roger made a good point about our being really busy when we come back. Maybe there's an opportunity next Monday or next Wednesday--and I would propose Monday--to deal with it and see where it goes.
