I'm not in a position at this stage to compare my approach to that of my predecessors. What I can say is what I said in my remarks. The approach I will propose to bring to the position is similar to the one I brought to the commission. It's one of balance. It's one of impartiality. It's one of respect for the purpose of the institution and for the role of the members. At the commission we were involved in sometimes visible cases, visible issues—the Pankiw case is one, as is the Vaid case. The approach that I always took was what is legally required but also what's in the public interest and how we make sure that what we put forward is sound in law but also makes sense for Canadians, makes sense vis-à-vis the mission and the mandate of whatever institution is involved.
