Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. MacPhie just confirmed—and for their benefit, because they weren't in the room before with the two deputy ministers—the figure that was public.
What actually disturbs me here, Mr. Chairman, is that when the requests that the Liberal Party asked for were ATIPed, they actually knew this number, and it was not even part of their line of questioning. That's a real concern for me today, because there seems to be a notion that if somebody has been politically active, then even though their credentials are substantial, they can't be involved in public service.
I would like to ask Sara.... Maybe before that I need to also disclose that, as you heard Sara say in one of her comments, she returned to Dundas. She is a friend and has been a constituent of mine.
Sara, you had alluded to your credentials and everything at the beginning. You roughly spent about 400 hours in your work, calculating what you said for the two months, in your budget development. You're a lawyer, and that works out to me to be less than maybe $100 per hour. I would think you probably took a substantial hit, wanting to serve the Canadian government on this. Is that correct?
