With that in mind, Commissioner, is it not odd--and wouldn't you think it's why my colleague is having a problem with this whole notion of not only having to be just but appearing to be just--that this investigation was called, it was cancelled, then an audit was called, there was a massive amount of delay before another criminal investigation happened, and then it was 18 months before the answer came about? During all this time, of course, the limitations of the RCMP Act were able to bleed out.
Would this not indicate to you, as an investigating officer, that there was more to be had here?
