Thank you, Mr. Chair. I want to thank all of the witnesses for being here today.
Mr. McGee, thank you for coming. Every time I hear you talk, whether in the media or in front of the House of Commons, you are very forthright and candid in your responses, and I appreciate that.
Before I ask you any questions, I'm just curious to know whether you have had any conversation with any member of the Conservative Party or staff before coming to the committee today.
