Thank you, Mr. Tilson.
Mr. Schreiber, I want to go back to the letters that you gave us as evidence, specifically the letters that you wrote to former Prime Minister Mulroney. Regarding the May 8, 2007 letter, I believe you've contradicted it here at this committee. You testified on Tuesday that the $300,000 cash you paid to former Prime Minister Mulroney was not a kickback from Air Canada's $1.8 billion purchase of Airbus jets. You've gone so far as to sue him to get this money back because you allege that he didn't complete the services you had agreed to.
Now, the opposition members have speculated that this money was a bribe or a kickback, but I've never heard of anybody suing for a bribe or a kickback. You certainly wouldn't go to court to sue somebody because you didn't feel you got value for a bribe or a kickback.
