I appreciate that.
I'm sorry, Minister. I've not tried to interrupt, and I certainly don't want us to talk over each other. I know that's very hard for our interpreters.
I hear what you're saying, and I respect that, but there's a lot of concern as well about the role of the consul general. I'm wondering, in your view, if the consul general should be consulted about or involved in the purchase of an official residence, and if you could tell me why or why not.
