Chair, I just want to quickly make a comment. I understand that this is a very important committee and it's a high-profile committee, especially on this case, but judging from the behaviour of the members on this committee in the last little while, I'm not so confident that there will not be unintended or intended consequences that will harm private businesses in this country. I made this comment in my previous debate. I have been the target of all kinds of negative comments. I saw that Mr. Angus has been a target as well. That's fair game; we're public officials. We are members of this committee, and that's all fair, but I just have to raise this concern.
We heard today from the witness that there are a lot of harmful things being said and done on this issue. Just going forward, can we keep that in mind and make sure that no further harm is done, especially to our witnesses and innocent—well, I shouldn't say innocent. I don't know but I would like to give the benefit of the doubt to all witnesses who come forward to this committee and not put them in an even worse situation, given that it's COVID and they're trying to survive.
Thank you.
