I recognize that you are independent, but I also recognize that you work for the people, as do I, a member of Parliament. While I may be the one who makes the decision in the end, it's still advisable to consult the stakeholders.
The QCGN and the FCFA represent all of the official languages communities and anchors in the country. They need to be consulted so that they can provide another level of insight. Both the QCGN and the FCFA are outraged over the changes you made to your handling of complaints under part VII of the act. I appreciate that you were trying to respect Judge Gascon's decision and the new interpretation, but I still believe you could process complaints using a different approach.
Now, I'd like to come back to the Netflix complaint because, as you know and as I pointed out earlier, I am one of the four complainants. You mentioned the commissioner's powers.
In that investigation, when you asked whether you could see the confidential agreement, you were told no. When you asked for information on the discussions around the Investment Canada Act, you were told no as it was all reportedly confidential. You are nevertheless managing to draw some conclusions. I have trouble understanding how you can possibly arrive at the right conclusion without access to any of the information.
I find it especially difficult to understand how that's possible since you are now limiting your involvement to respect the Gascon decision, recognizing that it isn't the ideal situation. You could say what would be ideal, but you're basing your findings on the current state of affairs. As I see it, you should consult the politicians here at this table, as well as Minister Joly and the parties concerned, to reconsider how you examine complaints, but I don't know whether you will.
