Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to our witness for being here today, because this is the proper place, this is the proper venue, for us to address this very important matter.
Madame Ouimet, you were appointed in August 2007. Can you please outline the appointment process that you went through and concluded in your being unanimously appointed by Parliament to this position? What steps were taken? Where did you testify? How long did the process last?
