Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.

Procedure and House Affairs committee I think on a temporary basis, yes. I think that is reasonable to expect, given the health circumstances.

Marc Bosc
Procedure and House Affairs committee Again, I think it could be done in a hybrid fashion.
