Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Boudreau, I really want to compliment you on your ability to respond in both official languages with such great ease. I can tell you, that is quite rare. When someone asks a question in English, you have no trouble answering in English, and when I speak to you in French, you respond in French, whereas that's usually more difficult. I'm very grateful for that
If you can't answer my question, I urge you to turn over the floor to someone else. For some time now, I've been receiving emails about the Governor General's expenses. Quebecers and Canadians across the country are asking that these expenses be reduced and capped. I know that some expenses are being charged to the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General, while others are being covered by various departments.
For the benefit of Quebecers and Canadians, is there any way to reduce and cap the Governor General's budgets, either through a committee or consideration in future budgets?
