Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon to our witnesses. I am replacing a colleague, but I am a bit familiar with the subject of consulting, having also made part of my career in that field.
My first question, and I am happy to finally have the opportunity to ask it, is for you, Ms. Bonin. Would you agree that there is a certain conflict of interest between the desire to transfer one's expertise, during a mission or in connection with a contract with the government, and the need to renew the contract and offer more expertise afterward? Do you recognize that there actually is a certain conflict of interest?
