Thank you, Mr. Dufresne. I greatly appreciate it.
Honestly, I must say that I'm very frustrated, as a member of the House of Commons and a member of this committee. After the start of the pandemic, we were given the task of reviewing all government spending and ensuring that the spending was done properly. When spending was questionable, we were responsible for following up. We tried to do so this summer. The Prime Minister's Office then suspended Parliament, instead of letting the Standing Committee on Finance ask questions. Now we're learning more about the number of redacted or censored documents. We're talking about over 600 pages.
Rather than ask Mr. Dufresne a question, I want to make a comment. The committee must get to the bottom of things, have access to unredacted documents and release to the public whatever needs to be publicly available. The House of Commons gave this responsibility to the Standing Committee on Finance at the start of the crisis.
