I understand that, Chair. I just want to complete my thoughts.
There's always a cost to obtain an assessment. In the ordinary course of events, the Liberal government, or an agent of the Liberal government, would have negotiated the purchase of this extravagant, ultra-luxury penthouse on Billionaires' Row for $9 million. There may or may not have been an assessment that was made privy to the agent who purchased the property on behalf of the Government of Canada, but unless it's in the government's possession, even if one exists, and unless the author of that assessment is a very generous individual or company, they are highly unlikely to release it to the government to comply with this order without a cost. The Liberal Party of Canada is in a position to pony up for a potential expenditure to comply with this particular order of committee, and my concern is it should not fall to the taxpayer.
