In fact, I was appointed by the Governor in Council as a member and vice-chairperson of the PMPRB. The board has five members appointed by the organization, and they are the vice-chairperson, the chairperson and three other members.
Mr. Herder was one of these members. So I was the vice-chairperson and member, and there was the chairperson, who left that position at the end of the term. Accordingly, it remained unfilled until there was a new appointment. I want to point out that I never put my name forward for the position of chairperson; I acted on an interim basis while waiting for a new chairperson to be appointed.
