Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I've read the documents, listened to Mr. Fortin's question and heard your response, Mr. Dufresne. Just to make sure I understand, I'm going to rephrase what was said and you can tell me if it sums up your thinking.
Basically, you're saying that the Governor in Council must investigate the circumstances that led to the declaration, but that doesn't mean the committee can't hear evidence related to the circumstances to give itself more context and carry out its review of the exercise of powers. We can consider the circumstances, can't we?
