Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, for that introduction and for the caveat that I'll be speaking in French.
For the benefit of the witnesses, I would like to point out that the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics is responsible for reviewing certain actions by elected officials. It's important to know that this isn't a court of law and that you aren't charged with anything. On the contrary, we're looking for information in response to a motion adopted by the committee. This committee does not replace the Ethics Commissioner either. These are different things.
Mr. Anderson, what is your relationship with Minister Randy Boissonnault?
