Senator Cormier: Thank you for this question. What is planned, actually, is public, so I can say who the witnesses are for the next meeting, which is next Monday.

[Translation]

We will welcome the following witnesses: Michel Doucet, Professor Emeritus at the Université de Moncton’s Faculty of Law, Érik Labelle Eastaugh, Associate Professor at the International Observatory on Language Rights, Janice Naymark, Counsel, and Benoît Pelletier, Distinguished Professor at the Civil Law Section of the Faculty of Law at the University of Ottawa.

These witnesses are scheduled to attend the meeting on Monday, after which we will proceed to clause‑by‑clause consideration. That is the answer I can give you, Senator Patterson, at this point.

The Hon. the Speaker: Is it on the activity of the committee?

Senator D. Patterson: Yes.

As Senator Cormier just said, the activities of the committee can include the calling of witnesses. I’d like to ask the chair if the committee would consider recalling government officials or perhaps even the minister to discuss this drafting error. Thank you.
