Thank you very much.
Mr. Vigneault, I understand that you are not going to deny or confirm the information that was given to the Globe and Mail, but we still have information that officers from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, CSIS, leaked information, perhaps out of dissatisfaction with the way the Prime Minister's Office handled this information.
We have a Prime Minister who is reputed to have brushed aside a recommendation to withdraw a candidate. We have a Prime Minister who almost says that those who suggest that a candidate might be on the payroll of the Chinese Communist Party are racists. This may give the impression that there is tension between the Prime Minister's Office and CSIS.
I would like to hear from you about the state of relations between your agency and the Prime Minister's Office: are they good?
