Thank you.
Going back, in Cameron MacDonald's testimony at the end of last year, he said, “On August 28, 2023, I received a letter from Minh Doan telling me that Minister Marco Mendicino wanted someone's head on a platter....”
Minister Mendicino wanted someone's head on a platter. Based on what we've heard today, Ms. Daly, it does look like someone has proposed your head to be the one on the platter. Now, for all I know, you may have done things wrong—I don't really know—but you are relatively junior compared to most of the officials who have come before this committee.
Unlike many other officials, you were not given gifts, hospitality, anything like that. While Kristian Firth lavished senior government officials who were involved in decision-making with all kinds of apparent gifts, and presumably he had reasons for doing so, he gave you nothing. You were the beneficiary of none of this hospitality. Then he out of the blue accuses you of being the one involved in discussing technical requirements on April 17. The whole thing looks very odd, frankly, very rotten. We're continuing to try to get answers on this corruption scandal. Minister Mendicino wants a head on a platter. What we're looking for is answers, and yet, people who are frank and try to give answers seem to be subject to retaliation.
Mr. Chair, I'd like to propose a motion in light of the fact that we haven't gotten agreement to do these things more consensually. The motion is:
In light of the testimony and evidence provided by Diane Daly, the committee order the production of the recording which Ms. Daly referenced in her testimony and call the following people to appear before the committee on ArriveCan and particularly to respond to the new information Ms. Daly has presented: Lysane Buldoc, Tom von Schoenberg, Arianne Reza, Kristian Firth, and Erin O'Gorman.
I will send the slightly revised version to the clerk.
