I don't find myself in an ethical dilemma; I find myself in what I would call a nominal dilemma, that is, the title of Ethics Commissioner is much broader than the powers I actually have and am entitled to exercise. So it's a misnomer, in a sense. As I've said to the committee before, I think a better title would have been the conflict of interest commissioner because that is what in fact I'm entitled to do. However, that's a totally different issue.
