Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'm going to put a series of questions to you.
First of all, thank you for being here. It's always a pleasure for me, as just a working-class guy from Hamilton, to be able to ask questions of the CSE and CSIS. This is kind of cool.
I'm going to put some direct questions to you, and I'm going to ask you to answer them as directly as you possibly can.
On February 27, 2023, the Government of Canada announced it was banning the use of TikTok applications on government mobile devices. Was the Communications Security Establishment consulted when this decision was made?
This is for you, Mr. Khoury.
