Okay. Thank you for that. There's a lot of confusion being created here today.
In fact, I want to go back to the email you sent on July 25. In that email, you state that the reason for this update email was a conversation between Minister Joly's chief of staff, Peter Wilkinson, and the chief of staff of the deputy minister, Karolina Guay.
I'll quote what you wrote at the top of your email:
Peter,
Following your conversation with Karolina and further to my email of June 17 below, I am writing to provide additional information on the purchase of a new Official Residence for the Consulate in New York....
I think we may have found the subject expert that you referenced in your testimony earlier in this meeting in regard to who advised you on what should be in the updated email. That would appear to be Mr. Wilkinson, in conversation with Karolina Guay.
I guess I'll give you one more opportunity to tell this committee: Did anyone in the minister's office—anyone at any level in the minister's office—directly or indirectly ask you to provide an update and to include this information in it?
