Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Telford, for being with us today. I must admit that I'm a bit bemused by why my colleagues in the Liberal Party turned somersaults to prevent the invitation from being issued to you.
I'm still a little perplexed about something you told us, and let me start with the issue of safety, which you rightfully raised. We know that if women are going to be able to serve equally in the Canadian Armed Forces, there has to be a sense of safety.
You said that you didn't know the nature of the complaint and didn't have any details, yet you asked if it was a question of safety and were assured that it was not. How could you know that if you knew nothing about the nature of the complaint or its detail?
