I have a great deal of difficulty with this. I believe I sincerely understand where Ms. Mourani is coming from. But how many crown corporations are there that answer to the Minister of Canadian Heritage? Shall we call all of their presidents or designates? Shall we get involved in the personnel and policy issues of all the crown corporations, and if not, why not?
I agree completely with my colleague, Mr. Chong. This is a case that if an employee of one of the crown corporations becomes aware of malfeasance, of things that are distinctly and clearly wrong, we now have whistle-blower legislation and we have all of those things in place. But in this particular instance, again, I ask the question, if this committee was inclined to support this motion, maybe it should be amended so that we call on the president of the CBC/Radio-Canada, the National Gallery, the archives, and every other department and crown corporation that we deal with. If not, why would this committee be singularly looking at CBC/Radio-Canada?
