Very well. That was the same concern we heard very early on in our study from the former commissioner, that we should not by any chance contaminate your investigation by doing the parallel study.
Following the release of your report, the Conservative leader came out and decreed that the system was broken. It's good that today you have reminded us that it was the previous Harper government in 2006 that deliberately excluded the perceived conflict of interest, that part of the act.
Respectfully, I see in your report that the system worked and is working, but I worry that this type of language the Conservative used served only to break down trust in our public institutions, including the officers of Parliament. Would you agree that the work you produced points to a broken system, as described by the Conservative leader?
