I think the questions put by Mr. Hubbard are fairly straightforward, Mr. Chairman. This obfuscation by the deputy minister really is not getting us very far. These are simple questions. We're here as the Parliament of Canada to elicit information from the Government of Canada and find out what's going on over there. These evasive responses are really not that helpful.
If there's a problem, tell us there's a problem, and let's see if we can resolve the problem. That is why we're here. We're not here to throw the book at the department. We want information, and we're entitled to that information, Mr. Chairman.
