Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Conacher, before going any further, I would like you to clarify something for me.

You said that the commissioner does not have executive authority because he is an officer of Parliament, but Parliament has three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. Why do you say that the commissioner's authority is legislative rather than executive?
