I appreciate the member opposite's desire to have the minister, as all of us would. I'm just trying to make certain that we have substantive value in the witnesses who come forward. We are going to have the minister appear on a number of occasions before us. I want to make certain that we deal with the matter that is of prevalence here, which is the executive and the CEO of the company determining how, in fact, they are operating. Even the deputy minister will have some limitations with respect to those answers. I wonder to what extent his being here will be the best use of his time. He'll just say they'll refer it to the CEO or to the executive, and it's arm's length. It's all those other things that are going to come out of it.
We need to get to the bottom of it. We need to make sure that the issues that are prevalent and the strategy...and that the board that oversees Canada Post is also held accountable for where we're going and how we're going forward. It is also the minister's desire to get to the bottom of those very issues that Mr. Bachrach....
Mrs. Block, I appreciate your desire. I would just rather save the minister for some more prevalent issues. You will have him here. In that case, you can ask him about this issue, as well as many other things, when he appears before us.
Again, I want to make good use of the time when we're having these deliberations and these witnesses, and get a more substantive response in terms of what comes forward.
