I think that's a fair question. I'd like to make a friendly suggestion to Mr. St-Cyr that may address this and move the discussion forward, I hope.
Mr. St-Cyr, we don't know if the Competition Bureau would release any information, having received it, or if they could. Without a study of the legislation governing their practices, we can't be sure we would get any information. Perhaps you could add the words “if possible” to your motion. It would say that this information be forwarded, if possible.
We can't compel them, obviously, by a motion of our committee, to violate any of their rules. We should acknowledge that they may not be able, having obtained the information from the banks, to forward it without violating certain aspects of their mandate. So could we simply add the words “if possible” to the motion?
Are you in agreement with that?
