Thank you.
Mr. Schreiber, a number of witnesses we've heard testimony from, some of whom you know quite well, have suggested--and I'm going to put this delicately--that you're sometimes less than truthful. In answering questions I asked of Mr. Pelossi, your former employee, he was quite emphatic about that. Mr. Doucet in fact indicated that some of the things you said are “completely false”. Mr. Lavoie indicated strongly that he believes you're often less than truthful. Mr. Mulroney also disputes your version of reality. In addition, you've indicated to us directly in your earlier testimony that you'd sign anything to avoid extradition. Your handwriting on the agreement with Brian Mulroney contradicts your testimony that you paid Mr. Mulroney $300,000.
I also note that we've asked every witness who has come before us whether they have any evidence of any wrongdoing by any public official regarding Bear Head, Airbus, the PCO correspondence unit, or a consulting agreement between you and Mr. Mulroney, and not a single witness could produce any evidence.
I'm going to add to all this the most relevant matter of all, which is that despite the allegations you've raised, specifically of Fred Doucet asking for a kickback for the former Prime Minister, and that you gave him $300,000 and he performed no work, you haven't provided this committee with a shred of evidence to back this up.
