Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for accepting our invitation to appear before the committee. Any information they can give us today will be very useful.
I'd like to go back and put things in context. We learned that the RCMP had launched an investigation in October 2023. In fact, the Auditor General had learned about it at the same time as everyone else, when she was already conducting her audit of the ArriveCAN application.
First of all, why didn't you notify the Auditor General of this investigation from the outset to avoid duplicating work and to use the information obtained through her audit of the ArriveCAN project?
