Could I please ask you a question, Madam Chair? There is something that is bothering me, and it has nothing to do with Ms. Ouimet's competence. After all, I did vote in favour of the motion. I am not questioning her competence. Nonetheless, I think that it is a little too early to confirm the appointment of somebody who will be assuming such an important role. Allow me to explain myself. I think that we ought to give Ms. Ouimet the opportunity to prove herself. Although she answered our questions, she did so as somebody who has not yet held the position. She has only seen the act, that is all. I would have liked her to have spoken more extensively about her plans and priorities. I feel this needs to be raised. Do you understand? Employees will be affected. We have got the process back to front.
