I had a follow-up question first, and then over to Mathieu.
I have to say, Mr. Chair, that I'm deeply troubled by the response that if you break the law and you already have contract, you still get hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer's money. It sounds like there is something very seriously wrong with the system, and that's why I asked the question earlier.
Instead of relying on this non-binding code of conduct, unless it's attached to a contract, surely the government must have mechanisms available where through regulation or amending the legislation they can make these provisions applicable in all cases. If you've already signed a contract and you are then convicted of fraud or bribery or collusion or drug trade, I find it unbelievable that you then say, "Oh, well. Too bad. We will monitor you in the future."
I wonder if you can speak to that. It doesn't give a whole lot of confidence that there is any kind of severe accountability if you break the law when you have a big hundred-million-dollar contract with the Government of Canada.
