One of the things that we discussed earlier was that a copy of the contract was provided to Minister Baird and only Minister Baird. In fact we know he was acting without Treasury Board advice. It was provided to him on the condition of confidentiality, and he broke that confidentiality. So it brings me to the next question. When he broke that confidentiality, he went on to state on that same date that the contract's closing date could be delayed until December 15, 2006, and I quote, “without any penalty, without any cost”. That's part of what he was leaking to the media. I'm wondering if he misrepresented that.
Mr. Kirkpatrick, was that an accurate statement made by Mr. Baird at that time?
