Good. Thank you very much.
My next question is for Mr. Hamel. Subsection 29.16(11) of the National Defence Act requires members of the Grievance Board, before commencing their duties with that office, to take the following oath:
I, ..........., do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully and honestly fulfil my duties as a member of the Canadian Forces Grievance Board in conformity with the requirements of the National Defence Act, and of all rules and instructions under that Act applicable to the Canadian Forces Grievance Board
Do you feel that members of the board take this oath seriously? I'm sure you do, but it's a rhetorical question. In your opinion, is there any reason to believe that former members of the Canadian Forces who take the oath and then become members of the board take it somewhat less seriously than people with only civilian experience? I'm referring to conflicts of interest here. Do you think that former members of the CF are capable of functioning objectively when they perform their duties as members of the board?
