Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I believe we did this for the last budget. We started the prestudy on the bill once the budget implementation act had been presented in the House.
I'm hearing a number of different comments from the different parties. I agree that this is going to be a fairly comprehensive budget. I think it would be helpful if we could, perhaps, once the budget implementation act is presented.... There's always a set of stakeholders that we typically hear from almost right off the bat, and it would be great if we could start with them.
Should we just postpone it to the next meeting and continue this discussion then, or should we have a vote on this? How are people feeling? I wish Mr. Ste-Marie was here, because I could look into his eyes as well, to get a sense about it, to see whether there's any appetite.
Should we vote on it or should we just punt it to the next meeting? I wanted to look to my colleagues. What are you feeling?
I think the sentiment is to move it to the next meeting.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
