Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you very much, Mr. Coteau. I really appreciate that.
Minister, at a press conference on May 11, you made the following statement:
I would like to reiterate my commitment and clear any doubts that may remain. I will respond to the requests from athletes and survivors for a national inquiry.
The word used in English is “inquiry”.
This is a legitimate request and I'm working to be able to announce this as soon as I can....
In your opening remarks today, you said, “governing means making decisions.” That's interesting. Two and a half months passed between the time you made the statement and the time you changed departments. Naturally, the fact that you didn't take action fuelled my cynicism and loss of confidence in the government.
Why didn't you take action on this independent public inquiry during those two and a half months?
