Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am going to share the time I have with my colleagues Mr. Côté and Mr. Dionne Labelle.
I would like to go back to Mr. Henschel and Ms. Marcoux.
The Standing Committee on Finance is discussing legislative changes that are included in Bill C-59, in division 18 in particular. All of the witnesses here want to and may discuss the legislative changes. For your part, you do not want to, or cannot talk about them, and I understand that. You cannot talk about legislative changes that would have a retroactive effect on matters in a case that is currently before the courts. You cannot or do not want to talk about the investigation of the Ontario Provincial Police on this matter.
As to whether all of the files were destroyed, even the Information Commissioner mentioned that she had no proof that they had not been destroyed, aside from Quebec, of course.
I'm sorry for the blunt question, but what is your purpose in coming here? What can you bring us that's related to the bill itself, outside of the fact that in your reply to Mr. Rajotte, you indicated that there is a disagreement in perspective between you and the Information Commissioner regarding compliance with the access to information requests? I'd like to know what you can bring here to the committee for the purpose of discussing Bill C-59?
