Did Mrs. Kusie take four of my five minutes?
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
By the way, I'm going to start by saying, Ms. Clarke, that I really appreciated the document you sent. I sent it to the minister after I read it. I thought it was very well done.
Mr. Stewart, I want to come back to the national security exemption that Mrs. Kusie just raised, which I believe was awarded to you. It's the contract related to ensuring that accessibility requirements were met, as Ms. Luelo just mentioned.
It's my understanding that in March 2020, the national security exemption was invoked to exempt all elements of the procurements of goods and services required in order to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, and it exempted these procurements from the provisions of all of Canada's applicable trade agreements.
Is that your understanding? Did you understand that that exception applied to all goods and services, not just to ArriveCAN, in that one contract?
