Finance committee  Yes, you do.

Finance committee  Yes, sir. He should be in.

Finance committee  Mr. Easter, he should be on now. His name is Maximilian.

Finance committee  We promoted him to panellist, Mr. Easter, but we don't see him anymore.

Finance committee  The only thing I can suggest at this point would be that he disconnect and try to reconnect, and we try to promote him again to panellist. Maybe he can hear me, or Mr. McGowan can connect with him and ask him to try that.

Finance committee  Just a second, sir. I'll let them in.

Finance committee  Yes. (Amendment negatived: nays 10; yeas 1 [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Finance committee  We can try to connect with Ms. Cardona. However, I'm—

Finance committee  Yes, certainly. Mr. Barrett, if you could go ahead and test your mike, we'll check with the interpreters in the room on how you sound.

Finance committee  Thank you.

Finance committee  Mr. Easter, I think those witnesses are on the second panel.

Finance committee  Yes, they're all in the waiting room, sir.

Finance committee  Wednesday next week....

Finance committee  There are phone lines that enable people to listen in real time. People who can listen on ParlVU have a 30-second to one-minute delay, but in real time they can dial into the phone lines. I am being told by the IT technicians here that we would have to suspend the meeting for at least 10 minutes to get the phone lines back up.
