Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Mr. Jacques, I don't know if you've already done a study on this, but do you know if there are any mechanisms in place so that before the government awards a company with a public contract, it can determine whether the company uses tax havens?
The example that comes to mind is KPMG, a multinational company that receives a lot of contracts from the federal government. It had been criminally charged in the United States, but if I'm not mistaken, there was an out-of-court settlement in Canada between the Canada Revenue Agency and KPMG.
