Those are questions probably better put to Janine, in terms of how you would go about fact-finding. We would have information about each person who was a GIC appointee because of their nomination, selection and appointment process. We wouldn't keep a running file on everything that they were up to. It would depend on where they were working and what organization they were the head of. In going to gather facts about an allegation, we would of course seek all the information that would be relevant, including the kinds of things that you talked about.
If I can just build on Mr. Lick's comments, I think this is a really unique situation, because you're talking about the person at the very head of the organization. I would never argue that PCO would get involved in internal matters of the armed forces. You don't want that, but because it was the GIC appointee, the executive appointee at the very top of the organization, we did have some responsibility to look into it.
The analogies would be the conduct allegations against the integrity commissioner in 2010, Madame Ouimet; conduct allegations against the head of the Canadian Human Rights Commission in 2013, Madame Chotalia; and even, at a stretch, the allegations against the Governor General as the head of state. When it's the person at the very top of the organization, where else do you go?
