Exactly. That wasn't done. We have already adopted that one.
I'm going to call for a vote on the main motion that I had read out halfway. I will complete reading out this motion:
...from 8.99% to 18.32%; that the meeting be at least two hours in length; that the minister appear for no fewer than one hour and that appropriate government officials appear for no fewer than two hours; and that this meeting occur no later than June 4, 2021.
Madam Clerk, can we please have a recorded vote on Mrs. Gray's motion as amended by Mr. Savard-Tremblay?
Is everybody clear here? There are no other motions, or amendments or anything else. This is what we're voting on.
(Motion as amended agreed to: yeas 11; nays 0)
The Chair: That's wonderful.
At this point, I will have to suspend the meeting so we can get our witnesses all online. Following the meeting, I will have the clerk immediately send out a clear schedule of the next meetings based on today.
We are suspended for five minutes.

Okay, that's fine.
(Motion negatived: nays 5; yeas 2 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
The Chair: Mr. Savard-Tremblay, I will also have a discussion with the clerk to see if it's possible to move it up a meeting—if it's possible. I will meet with the clerk to see if we can still find some way to accommodate your concerns.
Thank you all very much.
It's Friday, so have a wonderful weekend.
I'll see you on Monday.
The meeting is adjourned.

Lib. (QC)
Madam Chair, I'd like to speak.
My colleague Mr. Blaikie indicated that if NDP-1 does not move forward, he will not pursue amendments NDP-2 and NDP-3, so I would like to speak to all of them as a whole.
First, as I indicated to my colleague yesterday, the intent of this amendment is positive, and we on this side are very much in favour of the spirit and the intent of it. It is one of the reasons our main objective for the new NAFTA was to better reflect the interests of indigenous peoples. We indeed worked very closely with Perry Bellegarde and others to secure important clarity in the form of a general exception related to the rights of indigenous peoples as well as policy flexibility for indigenous peoples and indigenous-owned businesses in CUSMA.
That being said, this amendment is a departure from our other free trade agreements. It does cause some legal inconsistencies with other FTAs that Canada has signed. I would also note, as I'm sure everybody in this room knows, that Canada's obligations to indigenous peoples are enshrined in the Canadian Constitution, which supersedes all other legislation, including CUSMA, and renders these amendments redundant.
For that reason, Madam Chair, we will not be voting in favour of these amendments.
(Amendment negatived: nays 5; yeas 2 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
(Clause 2 agreed to)

Lib. (ON)
Yes, you may.
(Amendment negatived: nays 5; yeas 2)
(Clause 213 agreed to)
(Schedules 1 to 5 inclusive agreed to)
Now on to the short title. The new NAFTA, how's that?
Some hon. members: Oh, oh!
The Chair: It reads, “This Act may be cited as the Canada–United States–Mexico Agreement Implementation Act.”
Shall the short title carry?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
The Chair: Shall the title carry?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
The Chair: Shall the bill carry?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
The Chair: Shall the chair report the bill to the House?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
The Chair: We are going to try as a team to present the bill at 10 o'clock when the House convenes.
Some hon. members: Hear, hear!
The Chair: Wonderful. Thank you to all of the wonderful people who have done all of this excellent work for us, our support staff.
Mr. Hoback.
