As I said in my testimony, I was in Ottawa on January 18, 2018. There was a group of us assembled for a celebration because the minister was making an announcement with respect to the ombudsperson which basically was going to enhance in the legislation the powers that we're talking about today. The powers that we have been testifying about would be put in. That's why we happened to be there. We knew this and were invited to partake in it, only to find out sometime later that they didn't follow through on the decision. As I said in my testimony, had I known then what I know now, I wouldn't have attended the so-called photo op, as I refer to it.
On April 20th, 2021. See this statement in context.
