Thank you.
Mrs. Vignola has, I think, tried to engage in a certain spirit around compromise, but fundamentally, I don't think that the Liberal members across the way are that interested in a compromise. They're proposing to amend a document production motion to effectively make it not order the production of the documents that would be required to answer the basic questions involved.
In the absence of an apparent will to compromise from the members across, I think we should just pass the original motion that Mrs. Vignola put forward. The original motion was a good motion. We support it, so let's get on with doing what, I think, the majority of this committee is interested in doing.
The broader picture, Chair, is that, as we prosecute the arrive scam scandal, we see that Liberals are very concerned about resources when it comes to the small matter of producing documents for a parliamentary committee but seem completely unconcerned about the use of the resources involved in the scandal in the first place. Sixty million dollars spent on an app is no problem, according to them, but our trying to get the documents that would allow a parliamentary committee to investigate it is suddenly a resource issue. This is what's going on. This is the burying of information we see from the Liberal government. We have a majority on this committee that wants this motion to pass, so let's just pass it in its original form.
Thanks.
