It seems as if there are all kinds of committees. I can't remember who it was, but someone said earlier that you were not responsible for the partners. There's a committee for this and a committee for that, but in the end, if your Advisory Committee on Official Languages has no link with the rest of the machinery, how are we going to be able to convince the partners, the volunteers, the countdown committee, and the opening and closing ceremonies committee? It's as though everyone sits on a committee, everyone does a different task, but ultimately, your Advisory Committee has no contact with many of these people. It's as though you are relying on other people.
