If I were attempting to write a protocol, I think, first of all, I'd pick up on Mr. Cooper's question that a lot of government authorities all seemed to know, and we didn't. That's unacceptable.
The other point I'd like to make is that we are not the Government of Canada. We are the Parliament of Canada, and we sometimes confuse that. We do interact with government agencies, CSE in this particular instance, so any protocols that should be written should be directed to the House of Commons authorities that look after our security, and I think that's where this committee should focus.
How you arrive at when, if and how I think is extremely difficult. I would hope that the committee focuses its energy on that instead of running around saying that everybody else knew but us.
