Very briefly, I wish to thank the Chair, the secretariat and everybody else who has been involved in this committee. This has been a whirlwind where I have learned so much but I want to learn and do more. I think of all of the witnesses and I see how far behind we are. This gives us more momentum to drive on. We learn by sharing ideas and listening to witnesses. It has been a complete honour to be part of this committee but I do not believe that this committee will go away because the people who have been on it have also been amazing. They have forged friendships and trust. We all want to go in the one direction and once we have that plan, there is no point in us or anybody else trying to stop it. I thank the Chair.
