Thank you. The reason for these questions is obviously that, as you said, they've been reported. They've been out there in the news, and there's also the track record of this government.
As an example, Mr. Jacques called out the government on the fiscal situation framing as standing “at the precipice” and “looking over the cliff”. He raised concerns about the government's debt-to-GDP ratio deficits and the housing targets. In return, he was not reappointed. We've seen this pattern from the Liberal government before for people who speak out against them. They get dismissed. We saw a clear example with former minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, when she spoke against power.
If you get put in a situation such as that, where you're being pressured by the government to be quiet, will you still speak out?
