Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thanks to Mr. Johnston as well.

Mr. Johnston, I was somewhat shocked when you said in your opening statement that the comments made about your integrity were false and that repeating them doesn't make them true. To my mind, that statement alone puts you in a conflict of interest, particularly with regard to the opposition party leaders.

Mr. Johnston, you are a former Governor General of Canada, a position in which you did not play a political role.

However, you are still receiving compensation as a former governor general. Is that correct?
