Thank you, Mr. Chair. The next amendment would be to the sentence after the one we were dealing with, where it says “Canada Revenue Agency”. We would delete the word “and”.

We would delete “and”, keep “the”, add “current” and proceed with “mayor”. It would read, “Canada Revenue Agency, the current mayor of Laval”. Do you see that? Do you want me to keep going?

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. The final proposed amendment is about eight lines down. After “the Agency’s decision making process in this matter and to clarify the”, I would like to remove “Liberal” and just go with “Government”. I think it's pretty clear to everyone which party forms government. I don't want to politicize things. We're a non-partisan committee. I think it would cheapen what [more]

Thank you very much. Amendment number one that I recommend—and in my version it's about four lines in—is to strike out the following words: “the Minister of National Revenue”. I'll speak to the rationale. minister I fully understand the need for transparency and for questions and answers to be exchanged in this committee. As someone with a legal background, though, I understand that there is an [more]

We're also talking about a previous mayor.

I'll do them one at a time.

Thanks very much, Mr. Chair. I'm moving a subamendment to create proposed subsection (3.1). If you'd like me to read that into the record, I can do so. The proposed wording is as follows: “If any information is excluded from the registry under subsection (3), the President of the Treasury Board must identify in the registry whether the information was excluded for reasons relating to the [more]

My proposal would be to just have it as “Government”. I think we need to add an apostrophe in the version the clerk recently sent us.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thanks to my colleague, who is a gentleman. We spoke about this matter, and I have been reading a lot about it. It certainly is very egregious. I appreciate his concern and the fact that he has brought it before this committee. I want to propose some amendments to the motion, Mr. Chair. I have four. I can do those individually, if I may start with the first one.

There would be a comma, and then “and Mr. Vaillancourt”.

Thanks very much, Madam Chair. Thanks to our guests today. Just for some background, I'm a former municipal councillor. I was sitting around the municipal council table this time last year. When we talk about housing, I'm bringing a pretty particular lens to things. I am going to follow up on Ms. Lewis's line of questioning, which I think was an excellent line of questioning, with respect to [more]

Thank you so much for that. I'm going to get back to the municipal lens. Municipalities like mine in Milton and Halton Hills have spent years planning for population growth. The question I get now is from a federal perspective. What's the most important role that Build Canada Homes can play in helping that planned growth translate into actual homes on the ground with respect to water, waste [more]
