Let's do a straw poll. I think the two options are for five days, with a stop in Ottawa on Wednesday, or four days, condensed as best we can.
Would those in favour of a five-day scenario, with a stop in Ottawa on Wednesday, please so indicate?
I see two.
All those with a preferred option of a condensed four-day scenario, if possible, please signify.
I see five.
I think there's a general will there. If the clerk can accommodate it, he is so instructed—if it's possible.
We had a gentleman who was supposed to appear before us but who had health difficulties, coughing up bodily fluids such as blood, etc. The idea here is that the brief submitted by Lorne McCartney on behalf of ANAVETS, who could not appear at our meeting of December 13 because of an illness, be included in the evidence of that committee meeting.
