I certainly understand the concern of Mr. Bonin. I tend to have some sympathy for that position.
I also have another concern. The other concern, of course, is making an intelligent decision with the best information. We all have our various qualifications, capacities, and capabilities, but, as well, we depend on a tremendous number of resources occasionally. I wouldn't want to exclude any of us from having the opportunity to be able to have the most capable assistants here to make a decision, particularly when we're potentially going to be dealing with some very complex matters.
I understand your concern, Mr. Bonin. Were this to turn into a backroom circus, I certainly don't want to go there. I also wanted to have the information necessary that's going to assist us to make the best decisions.
With all respect, Madam Thibault, I certainly understand where you're going with this. I would concur that we should have the possibility of bringing in capable assistants, and there is no disrespect to Mr. Bonin. Our actions will dictate whether we are making the right decision on this, and perhaps we could revisit it if we find that we have a problem.
