Ms. Hassard, after Ms. Ouimet left and after this disaster and all this kerfuffle surrounding the position of Public Service Integrity Commissioner, Ms. Fraser, the Auditor General of Canada, appeared before this committee to report to us on the situation. That was December 14, 2010. On the afternoon of the same day, Stockwell Day appointed an interim commissioner. So that means that neither your office, nor Stockwell Day had any knowledge of what the Auditor General of Canada and Mr. Keyserlingk had said. So you learned nothing from Ms. Ouimet's appointment. I find that appalling.
On March 8th, 2011. See this statement in context.
