Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Before I begin, I would like to congratulate both Ms. Hawara and Mr. Williams on the quality of your French. Ms. Hawara, in particular, your bilingualism is quite remarkable.
I will continue on Mr. Carrier's line of questioning. We have come to the realization, as you indicated in your presentation, that fewer than 1% of charitable organizations pay salaries in excess of $250,000.
I too make a distinction between a charitable organization or foundation and the institution for which it was established. Earlier, Mr. Carrier spoke about the example of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, but he could have been talking about any symphony orchestra. As far as I am concerned, the conductor is an employee of the symphony orchestra, and not of the foundation.
I thought and still do think that this bill is targeting people who earn more than $250,000 in charitable organizations, and not people in the organizations for which they were created.
Do you share the same feeling with respect to this bill, or am I mistaken?
