Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  I'm waiting for the translation. It should arrive any minute now.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Yes.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  You're right, Madam Neville, to mention that the dissenting opinion appears after the signature of the chair, and traditionally it has been the committee's decision to allow a party to annex a dissenting opinion to the report.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It's being translated, and we will have it tomorrow.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. The problem with the school is that they don't physically have a room big enough to have a console installed plus an interpretation booth in order for it to be an official committee meeting. They simply don't have a room big enough to accommodate us. They'd be happy to have the committee members come next Tuesday morning for a walkabout, as the chair mentioned, but it won't be possible to have an official meeting.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  There being no further motions to this effect, it is my pleasure to declare Madame Crowder as vice-chair of the committee.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  I now invite the chair to take the chair.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Honourable members, les honorables membres du comité, I see a quorum. We can now proceed to the election of the chair. I am ready to receive motions to that effect.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It has been moved by Mr. Bruinooge that Mr. Mayes be elected as chair of the committee. Are there any further nominations? Seeing none, I declare Mr. Colin Mayes elected as chair of the committee and offer him congratulations from the clerk.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Before inviting Mr. Mayes to the chair, we will proceed to the election of the vice-chairs. Are there any motions to this effect? Monsieur Lévesque?
