Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for being here today.
I have a question for you as to a position the CBC took for an extended period of time relative to the question of access to information. If I understand correctly, they were pretty consistently saying to me, as the opposition critic on heritage, that if the CBC were to come under access to information as a crown corporation, that would end up potentially compromising their commercial competitiveness with private broadcasters. I wonder if you would comment on that in that it's a done deal now they are going to be covered, but I wonder if we could have your perspective on that particular question as we move forward.
