Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. MacDonald, in your presentation, you said that you would have preferred Deloitte, which was already very involved with the Government of Canada in the procurement of personal protective equipment.
In the email you sent to Mr. Doan in November 2023, you wrote that you had found a company in Montreal and that you had contacted GC Strategies to assess the options and move forward. My understanding is that this happened after Mr. Firth sold you on Botler in his email, unless you had found Botler and then went through GC Strategies.
