The concept of providing the justifications in advance as opposed to retroactively is interesting. I think when a prime minister makes an announcement around prorogation, in fact he—in this case it's a he, that's why I'm saying “he”—does provide some sort of justification and rationale for that. It's not written up as a report to Parliament, but he does usually offer some sort of justification for why he's doing it. I think the comments Prime Minister Trudeau made at the time were in fact consistent with what we see in the report.
It speaks to another issue of where accountability comes in here. Again, a prime minister does not have to give reasons for prorogation. He does now because standing order changed, but constitutionally he does not. There is a public accountability as well. It's largely a public response and whether the public accepts the version that's in the report or whether they think there's something else going on. I think that's an important part of the conversation we're having.
