which shouldn't be th that difficult to implement , like eighty to hundred word. Basically you want you don't want to store all the channels in the remote control ,
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
you want to st store your favourite channel.
QMSum_90
false
Maybe ten channels , yeah at the most.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah some ten twelve channel information. You know you don't want to st store all the hundred channel information into that.
QMSum_90
false
Okay.
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
And uh basically uh it depends like the remote with L_C_D_ display for browsing because you have multiple functionalities for example you are watching a movie , and uh uh you are having a universal remote control and you want to uh you don't know really which functionality is now , so I am using the T_V_ so every time I use it , it could be like , for example I can use a simple toggle switch , and a display , so I press it so the display says , okay , I'm in T_V_ or D_V_D_ or whatever it is , instead of having three keys separately for four keys ,
QMSum_90
false
Mm-hmm.
QMSum_90
false
Mm-hmm. Oh yeah yeah yeah mm.
QMSum_90
false
to model the functionalities will increase actually ,
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
and for you and you might want
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
you don't want separate keys for all of them. You can't. And uh well there can be children friendly where you can programme your remote so that they they are not allowed uh to browse certain channels which you can block them , and you can operate them. So these are the things presently which are seen in the market scenarios at present.
QMSum_90
false
Mm-hmm.
QMSum_90
false
I personally would look at things like having a u universal remote , is uh um is a good idea , like instead of having unusual ones for all of them you can think of having , um with multiple functionality possibly with speech recognition.
QMSum_90
false
Mm-hmm.
QMSum_90
false
I got a mail from the the coffee machine interface unit that uh they have uh integrated the s speech recognition into a into the coffee machine ,
QMSum_90
false
Mm b
QMSum_90
false
and so if you say hello coffee machine , it say hi Joe , or something like that , you know , and uh
QMSum_90
false
But a coffee machine , there's not too many words they'd be using with that it's a it's a small vocabulary.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah you you won't be using it , so it's a limited vocabulary mm thing , and very isolated word
QMSum_90
false
Mm. Mm.
QMSum_90
false
and it's uh it is interesting , and basically storing the channel through voice or other ways of programming your keys , on the display for the browsing
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
which is again and maybe having something like a blinking thing , like uh it could indicate you're uh it it could indicate what is cal like the uh whether uh you you have enough battery in your in your uh remote , the blinking.
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
At the same time , if it's a dark room , it can be used to locate the remote also
QMSum_90
false
or
QMSum_90
false
And you want okay for coming back to one point
QMSum_90
false
Two thirty five supposed to finish.
QMSum_90
false
y you want to let the user to programming the keys ? Some of them ?
QMSum_90
false
Yeah you can let them to do that.
QMSum_90
false
And uh isn't that too difficult for the we want w I don't know if we still want the um R_C_ to be easy to use ,
QMSum_90
false
Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
that's the compromise.
QMSum_90
false
N no but the if you give it d depends on the easiness like the user how much effort he can put.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
Like for example uh I would like to store in certain way , so if you want to give the full freedom to the user
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
or you want to keep some constraints and let the user use it with that constraint.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah. Mm. I think you can do it both ways.
QMSum_90
false
So it de
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
You can have it so it's easy they can pick it up and use it straight away without doing anythi without customizing it ,
QMSum_90
false
A standard.
QMSum_90
false
or if they want to they have the option of using these extra features.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
Um yes but but I do
QMSum_90
false
So
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
true
maybe you can give a hand to us because I I'm not sure whether that that we can implement that for twelve Euro and fifty cents.
QMSum_90
false
So
QMSum_90
false
Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
I'm sorry to have Every time I have to come down on this price again
QMSum_90
false
Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
to so this might be a little limiting for your creativity ,
QMSum_90
false
Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
but it's it's it's the real We have to consider it. S so
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
do we think these ideas an and my uh sp speech recognition , I mean maybe it's possible for for twelve Euro but then then it will be at cost of other functionality we might implement like the uh uh the the the furry uh uh case of the
QMSum_90
false
Mm. Hmm.
QMSum_90
false
Mm-hmm yeah like I would say that for programming uh keys , you said , uh it could be uh easily uh done within the the package of twel twelve Euros ,
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
Yeah.
QMSum_90
false
but for the A_S_R_ system , uh I'm not sure if it's feasible to have this
QMSum_90
false
We well we can still look at we can talk with the coffee unit
QMSum_90
false
We
QMSum_90
false
and you can uh check how much how much they
QMSum_90
false
Exactly yeah i if if it's a low vocabulary it's already implemented ,
QMSum_90
false
yeah yeah
QMSum_90
false
Mm.
QMSum_90
false
yeah.
QMSum_90
false
and w how much it's cost , maybe with a f cheap chip.
QMSum_90
false
Maybe we can come we we can talk to them , and we can come with that ,
QMSum_90
false
Mm mm.
QMSum_90

We'll call this meeting to order. Welcome to the fifth meeting of the House of Commons Special Committee on the COVID-19 Pandemic. Pursuant to the order passed on Monday, April20, the committee is meeting today to consider ministerial announcements, to allow members of the committee to present petitions, and to question ministers, including the Prime Minister, about the COVID-19 pandemic. Tomorrow, May8, Dr.AndreaMcCrady, Dominion Carillonneur, will give a special recital to mark the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day. Victory in Europe Day, VE Day, commemorates the formal acceptance of Germany's surrender by allied forces at the end of the Second World War. While the pandemic prevents us from gathering to celebrate in person, tomorrow at noon the voice of our nation will ring out in remembrance of this milestone in our history. Today's meeting is taking place by video conference. The proceedings will be made available via the House of Commons website. Just so you are aware, the webcast will always show the person speaking rather than the entire committee. I would like to remind members that, as in the House of Commons or committee, they should not take photos of their colleagues or film the proceedings. In order to facilitate the work of the interpreters and to allow the meeting to proceed smoothly, I would ask you to follow some instructions. The video conference will be interpreted as in normal meetings of committees and in the House. In the lower part of your screen, you can choose the language: floor, English or French. Please wait until I call on you by name before you begin to speak. When you are ready to speak, click on the microphone icon to activate your microphone, or hold the space bar down while you are speaking. If you release the bar, your microphone will revert to mute, just like a walkie-talkie. Honourable members, I would like to remind you that if you want to speak English, you should be on the English channel. If you want to speak French, you should be on the French channel. Should you wish to alternate between the two languages, you should change the channel to the language that you are speaking each time you switch languages. Please direct your remarks through the chair. Should you need to request the floor outside of your designated speaking time, you should activate your mike and state that you have a point of order. If a member of the committee wishes to intervene on a point of order raised by another person, you should use the raised hand function to indicate to the chair that you wish to speak. To do this, click on the participant button at the bottom of your screen. When the list appears, you will see the raised hand option beside your name. Speak slowly and clearly at all times. When you are not speaking, leave your microphone on mute. It is highly recommended that you use a headset with a microphone. You have to remember to switch languages. Should any technical challenges arise, for example, in relation to interpretation, please advise the chair immediately by raising a point of order, and the technical team will work on resolving them. Please note that we may need to suspend during these times in order to correct a problem. I want to remind the honourable members to mute their microphones when they are not speaking. If you get accidentally disconnected, please try to rejoin the meeting with the information you used to join initially. If you are unable to rejoin, please contact our technical support team. Before we get started, please note that in the top right-hand corner of your screen is a button that you can use to change views. Speaker view allows you to focus on the person currently speaking; gallery view allows you to see a larger number of participants. You can click through the multiple pages in the gallery view to see who is on and how many more participants there are. I understand there are no ministerial announcements today. We will now proceed to presenting petitions for a period not exceeding 15 minutes. I would like to remind members that any petition presented during the meeting of the special committee must have already been certified by the clerk of petitions. In addition, to ensure a petition is considered properly presented, the certificate of the petition and each page of the petition for a petition certified in a previous Parliament should be mailed to the committee no later than 6 p.m. the day before. Now we'll go to presenting petitions. Mr. Genuis.

Mr. Chair, five years ago when Parliament passed Bill C-14, then justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould said that it represented a finely tuned balance between access and safeguards. It also included a five-year review. Petitioners on the first petition I'm presenting are very concerned to see Bill C-7 before Parliament, which removes safeguards ahead of that five-year review. Petitioners specifically mention their concerns about the removal of the mandatory 10-day reflection period, which can already be waived in certain circumstances. They are concerned about reducing the number of witnesses required to oversee it and ensure that a request has been properly made. I commend that petition to the consideration of the House. The second and final petition that I will be presenting today is with respect to Senate Bill S-204. This would make it a criminal offence for a person to go abroad and receive an organ from a person who did not consent. This responds specifically to concerns about organ harvesting in the People's Republic of China involving Falun Gong practitioners and increasing concerns that this is being or about to be applied to Uighurs as well. Canada can and should take action on this. Petitioners are noting that in the previous Parliament there were bills on this, Bill C-350 and Bill S-240. Now, in this Parliament there is a bill, Bill S-204, and the petitioners hope that this 43rd Parliament will be the one that gets it passed.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. It's an honour. This is my first occasion to present a petition in our virtual format of the COVID-19 committee. Thank you to you and your staff, Mr. Chair, for developing a system that allows us to present petitions electronically. The petition I am presenting today, which was previously approved, is from a number of constituents who are concerned that we pursue the Paris Agreement to hold the global average temperature increase to no more than 1.5C. The Paris Agreement itself embeds in it the concept of Just Transition with a capital J and a capital T, the concept of just transition ensuring fairness and support for all workers in the fossil fuel sector. The petitioners call upon the Government of Canada to move forward with an act to ensure just transition and to ensure adequate funding so that workers and communities dependent on the fossil fuel sector receive meaningful support to ensure security in their lives in the transition to more sustainable energy use. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Those are all the petitions for today. I want to thank the honourable members for their usual collaboration and now we'll go on to

On a point of order, Mr. Chair, on Tuesday, at our COVID-19 committee of the whole meeting, I was asking a question which started at 12:56:06 and was cut off at 1:00:32, so I still have 34 seconds of time remaining in my question time of five minutes. You said it could be no more than five minutes but that I had up to five minutes. Thirty-four seconds leaves a lot of time to have a quick question and a quick response. If you believe that my time was unjustly cut off and that it was unfair treatment of the official opposition when we were raising our points of order, I would ask that the 34 seconds be tacked on to the opening round for the opposition and credited to Rosemarie Falk, who will be leading off for the Conservatives.
QMSum_84

Normally what happens is the chair uses judgment, and with 35 seconds, there isn't enough time obviously for a full question or answer, most of the time. I'll take it under advisement. I can't allot it. I want everyone to know that I do have a timer next to me and I am timing the questions, and I will be treating the answers the same way. If it's a 25-second question, it will be a 25-second answer. Thank you for bringing that up. I believe that issue has been remedied. We've taken a little bit of the chair's ability to give judgment on it, but it will be from now on. Thank you.
QMSum_84

Mr. Chair, 34 seconds is a considerable amount of time to do a short question and a short answer.
QMSum_84

I appreciate the advice. Thank you, Mr. Bezan. We'll now proceed to the questioning of ministers. I would like to remind the honourable members that no member will be recognized for more than five minutes at a time and that members may split their time with one or more members by so indicating to the chair. Ministers responding to the questions should do so by simply turning on their microphone and speaking. Our first questioner is Ms. Falk.

Mr. Chair, yesterday, Elizabeth May and the leader of the separatists declared oil to be dead. It's certainly not dead, but it's dying under the Trudeau government. Will the Prime Minister stand up for Canada's energy workers, or does he agree with the fringe left and those who want to destroy our country?
QMSum_84

I have a point of order.
QMSum_84

Mr. Chair, I believe that the language that the honourable member just used is unparliamentary

That's not a point of order.

We can have differences of opinion, but it is absolutely Some hon. members: Debate. Ms. Elizabeth May: unacceptable and violates my privileges to An hon member: Debate. Ms. Elizabeth May: No, it's not debate. I would ask the chair to rule on that, not the member from the Conservative Party. It is unacceptable to assert that anyone who wants to make a point about our economy is trying to destroy the country. This allegation is a violation of my privilege. An hon. member: She was also named by the

Order. I didn't recognize anyone. I don't know who is speaking, so I'll just start talking myself. I want to remind honourable members to have respect in their questions and in their answers. When you refer to someone, please refer to them respectfully. This is a committee of the House, and I would expect no less of the honourable members. We'll go to the right honourable Prime Minister. You have 16 seconds.
