Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I would like to raise an issue that came out of the March 21, 2011, meeting. I have a copy of the blues. I don't want to go into it in depth unless we have to, but I did want to give Ms. Sgro the opportunity to withdraw her unparliamentary language that she used in accusing our side of being liars.

As spoken

Judy Sgro Liberal York West, ON

I didn't say “liars”.

Ms. Sgro, I actually have the blues here.

As spoken

Judy Sgro Liberal York West, ON

I will withdraw my comments. I actually was going to do that, because I thought it wasn't being fair. I have found that all of the members on this committee have been very nice. I made that reference in the larger context of some other things, but certainly not in reference to you.
