Thank you, Mr. Chair.
And thank you to the witnesses.
I also worked in the non-profit sector back in the eighties in Fort McMurray, in northern Alberta, and I discovered quickly that non-profit means that you're working for non-profit for yourself as well. I went back to law school and did much better after that.
I did, however, spend some time as the chair of the Children's Health Foundation of Northern Alberta during the nineties, and I have to tell you it was very moving indeed. I got involved with many charities. In fact, I am involved with Health Partners International as well now.
I want to talk a little about something that's happened in the budget recently, and that is, of course, transparency and accountability, and generally transparency relating to non-profit organizations and charities in Canada. Would any of the witnesses here disagree with the statement that foreign foundations, foreign groups with particular directions, are in Canada utilizing foreign money to directly interfere with Canadian policy? Would anybody disagree with that?
