The Chair (Mr. Bob Mills (Red Deer, CPC)):
    We're taking a short break. Thank you very much for your...yes, a little acceptance speech. I know the reason you voted for me was because of my timer, and I can tell you it's 23°C in here right now as well.
    We have to break because there has to be a notice of our next meeting before we can call the witnesses and get it all on the tape correctly and so on.
    The meeting is adjourned.
