Thank you.

I want to go on to the Governor in Council appointments. You raised concerns about them. As you know, this government did strike a commission that hasn't been quite active, although it's costing us $1 million a year.

Have you witnessed any examples of non-merit-based appointments in this process, or are you asking for a revamp because there are concerns in this area?
