Thank you very much, colleagues. We have completed the rounds of questioning a little bit early.
It gives me an opportunity, Madam Barrados, to thank you for your work. On behalf of our committee, we appreciate your dilligence in making us informed and your partnership over the last number of years. I've had the privilege of serving five years on this committee, and you've been before us several times. You were here even before I was, and I have appreciated your insight over the years and the friendships that have developed, I believe, among colleagues around this table and you and your office.
We don't know who your successor is and we don't know when that appointment will come, so you may be before our committee again, but I felt it would be remiss if I didn't thank you for your service and wish you well in the event that we don't see you before this committee again. I know you have many plans to use your expertise and to go abroad to share the things that Canada is doing, to be a shining light in other places where they need your expertise and the expertise that you've developed through your office.
We appreciate your contribution here and we appreciate the fact that you will be continuing to make contributions around the world. Truly, you are a remarkable Canadian. We want to thank you and your commission for your work and we wish you well in the future.
