I would tend to agree. There's a certain smugness that we like to have in looking down our noses at America. I think a bit of fauxgressivism happens there in how we're treating this information. When you look at the contracts, for instance—you wouldn't probably have known this, but this was a question that I brought up repeatedly to the minister responsible for procurement, asking them to post the contracts—it is my understanding that it only benefits the seller and not the buyer to have secrecy in these disclosures. Again, we heard from Mr. Cutler the idea of options versus actuals on the vaccines.
Could Mr. Cutler speak a little about the importance of having an open government approach to the actual contracts and ways that it might be able to help us come to a better process? This isn't about vilifying government. This is about having good processes in place that shine the light in dark corners and make sure that government is actually doing what it says it's doing.
Mr. Cutler, could you talk about the importance of seeing the devil in the details of our contract?
