Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Fast is correct that I do want to follow up on comments that he made.
I think I heard Ms. Beattie correctly when she said in response to somebody's question that this amendment would actually provide preference for a non-resident.
I'd like to know, too, in what space would we see that an appointment for a position by the Government of Canada should not give preference to a Canadian citizen? That just boggles my mind, so help me understand.
