We've addressed all the items on the agenda.
Is it the will of the committee to adjourn the meeting?
Mr. Godin, you have the floor.

Joël Godin Conservative Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier, QC
Mr. Chair, you'll get to know me and you'll see that I love to talk.
Before the meeting adjourns, I just want to say that the committee has traditionally maintained a high level of camaraderie and respect and a shared mission that transcends partisanship. I urge the committee to keep this same vision and attitude, without ever antagonizing anyone on the basis of political allegiances. We may have differences of opinion, but we're capable of working together, as history has shown us.
I also want to take this opportunity to say how pleased I am that we have Ms. Martin as our clerk and Ms. Lecomte as our analyst. We're in good hands with them.

I want to thank Mr. Godin for his comments. I agree with him.

Mario Beaulieu Bloc La Pointe-de-l'Île, QC
My comments will fall along the same lines.
Congratulations on your election as chair of the committee, Mr. Chair.
I would also like to thank our clerk and our analyst, who always do an excellent job.
I think that Mr. Godin and I are the only members who sat on the committee in the last Parliament. There's also Marc Dalton, who is participating by video conference. Even though sometimes the debates get heated, we're all here to put forward our ideas.

Thank you, everyone.
