Yes, we consulted with the Auditor General and we have.... If I may, I just want to thank you and your family, Mr. Turnbull, because I know this summer has been very busy. I understand your feeling because, for me as well, when 83,722 people took the time to submit an online survey, it's surprising to hear some of the comments. What would you say to these 80,000 people who took the time to do that? Their voices matter. They voiced that, and they provided us with the information. There were 50 round tables, 57 bilats, 20 cities, 13 provinces and one federal-provincial-territorial meeting. I mean, this has been a consultation that I haven't seen in a long time. I want to thank you, because you've been so instrumental.
To your point, I think the committee members will have the opportunity to do that next summer. It's going to be great. They'll be busy all summer if they wish to go around the country and listen to witnesses to inform the budget. However, to suggest that there have not been budget consultations.... You would know, because you did it yourself, and your family paid quite a heavy price with your having to travel across the country to do that. I understand how you feel.
