Madam Chair, I'm not fudging anything here. What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't matter when and where. Protecting the ombudsman's office and the conversations are extremely important, regardless of what the situation is. Changing that—me undermining that—will undermine the confidence that's built here.
Life would be so much easier for me to just be able to come out and say things, but, no, you need to protect the institutions that we have put into place. We need to protect the investigations that are currently in place.
I know this is extremely difficult. It's difficult for me. However, we have to right now protect the institutions that we have. We have to protect the investigations. Most importantly, we have to protect the women who have come forward and give them the confidence that they're going to have a fair chance in this process.
