Thank you, Mr. Chair.
You stole a little bit of my thunder there. I also want to go down this path with the commissioner about what types of legislative changes you need to give you the power and the authority to ensure that transparency is being respected, that information is being shared in a timely manner and that we're not seeing an abuse of authority, where government is trying to use secret or top secret classifications or cabinet confidences for things like issues surrounding the purchase of PPE and declaring that's a national security issue when you're buying things such as masks, gloves and respirators.
I just ask again.... As a committee, we want to be looking at doing things proactively. What exact legislative changes do we need to incorporate into the act to ensure you have the power to do everything to compel the department to report and to make sure that fines are levied and whether or not it's put into the hands of the right authorities as to whether or not there need to be charges laid?
