Frankly, what happens after the fact is not something that the board can control. I'm not sure I can answer that particular question.
There are extraordinary Canadians from all walks of life who have applied for this, I can assure you. What we're trying to do, based on our own qualifications, is to make an appropriate assessment of the ways in which the individuals who have applied for this position meet the criteria that have been provided to us, the merit-based assessment criteria we must work with in making recommendations to the Prime Minister. That's the only thing I can say.
All of us are committed to abiding by the terms of reference and to doing this work very seriously. I think it requires each of us to step outside of ourselves for a minute and to think more broadly about those qualifications.
