Colleagues, we're going to move immediately to Mr. Doucet. I anticipate we are going to be going over the normal meeting time by 15 to 20 minutes.
Our final witness is Mr. Doucet, who was the senior adviser to former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and was chief of staff when Mr. Mulroney was leader of the official opposition. In his role as senior adviser to the Prime Minister, Mr. Doucet was responsible for international initiatives and summits for the Office of the Prime Minister.
Since leaving government in 1988, he's carried on business under the name Fred Doucet Consultants International.
Good afternoon, Mr. Doucet.
