I appreciate the fact that you are worrying on my behalf, Mr. Godin, and I appreciate your point of view. However, seriously, the mandate that I accepted was to act as Chair. There were changes made to the contract, because I agreed to meet with people who were not part of my original mandate. I agreed to do so without asking for any change in pay, given that you referred to payment. As the process unfolded, drafts were prepared. I submitted the final report at the end of February. Did the department already have draft reports in hand? Yes, I told you that earlier.
On April 8th, 2008. See this statement in context.
