Ms. Amélie Bouchard (Acting Chief Appraiser of Canada, Real Property Services, Department of Public Works and Government Services) at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you for the question.

It is actually not in the mandate of the chief appraiser of Canada to judge the merits of a transaction or the decisions to acquire or dispose of an asset. My mandate for a given address is limited to providing an appraisal report that is produced according to the rules and the standards of the profession.
