Yes, that's correct, Chair.
I'd like to move that Superintendent Denis Constant, the former executive officer in former Commissioner Zaccardelli's office, and also retired Chief Superintendent Wayne Watson appear as witnesses before this committee.
The reason is that we've heard conflicting testimony before this committee. Former Commissioner Zaccardelli has unequivocally stated—in fact he used terms such as “absolutely not”—that he did not request a criminal investigation. We heard the exact opposite from Mr. Ron Lewis. His notes from that meeting indicate the exact opposite. His actions seem to indicate the exact opposite.
We've heard in testimony this morning that there may be individuals who would help us try to figure out which side of this conflicted testimony is the correct version. As we've said on numerous occasions here, we expect truthful and fulsome answers. People are protected by parliamentary privilege, and we treat with great seriousness any situation that may indicate a contempt of this committee or of Parliament. Consequently, I'd like the committee to have these two individuals appear, and I seek unanimous consent.
