No, not at all.
As I said earlier, it was not a refusal to disclose the documents. It was a refusal to do so in the forum that was presented. Unfortunately, for what I would call political reasons, the situation became very black and white: do it or don't do it. That is in addition to the fact that we were torn between having to respect your privilege as parliamentarians and having to obey the laws that you pass and that we are required to obey. It was extremely difficult for some public servants, including the former president of the Public Health Agency of Canada. It was like squaring a circle for us. Since no political solution was proposed at the time, meaning a solution that you found together as parliamentarians, our only choice was to turn to the courts to help us resolve the conflict between respecting parliamentary privilege and obeying the law.
