Thank you, Chair.
It's good to be here in Ottawa after a lot of time. It's nice to see colleagues in person once again, and I hope everybody has kept healthy and safe and that everyone's loved ones are okay too.
Many thanks to you, Chair, along the way. I know this is the final set of meetings the finance committee will have with you at the helm, and it's been absolutely great and a wonderful experience working with you, as I've told you over the years.
To the staff behind the scenes, too, here at Parliament, and our own staff, thank you very much. This committee has been very active over the past year and a half, without any stops, and that continues.
Mr. Dufresne, you've answered this, I think, but I want to be crystal clear here. Is the press release that we saw yesterday consistent with the view that Parliament is indeed supreme and that Bill C-208 is in force? The press release recognizes that, I think, but could you elaborate?
