Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

I am flabbergasted somewhat by the reaction of the four witnesses to Mr. Simard's question.

All four of you came here as experts, people who know more than we and will teach us things we need to know. He asked you a question that has a direct relation to your good faith: What would the benefits be of this transaction, if people wanted to defend this transaction? And all four of you stayed silent.

I have a hard time with your good faith when I observe the reaction of so-called experts. Anybody want to give it a second try?
