Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I thank Mr. Dion for his answer.
Mr. Dion, I have a rather philosophical question. As commissioner, don't you think transparency is the most important thing?
As for me, I am an MP from the National Capital Region. I have been in the region for over 33 years. It is always said that people rarely stay in the region as long as I have. Many people come to Ottawa and then leave the region. In my case, several people I know and consider friends work in government relations and other fields.
What matters most: that I am transparent or that, as a precaution, I no longer talk to people I've known for some 30 years?
