I didn't say that. Why are you talking about lying? Why are you talking to me about lies?

Not at all. I can understand your memory lapses, for example.
Is that what it is, Mr. Côté? You were told not to say everything because, in any case, this isn't an investigation and the less you say, the better. That's what you were told to do?

As an Individual
I was told that we would discuss a topic. I made my opening statement under oath. It concerned that topic, and that's it. I can't make up answers.
