What you're saying here is that you have no responsibility for anything that went on. You're saying that you knew nothing and that you had an ADM who was your eyes and ears, but he never actually told you anything. You're saying that you saw that the act should be revised, but you didn't know what it should be revised on, when now five minutes later you said you had some ideas of how it should be revised. You're saying that when board members were voting for themselves 82% of the time, in contravention of the SDTC Act, which you were responsible to Parliament for as a deputy minister, you don't believe it was your responsibility to know what was going on there.
Who are you covering up for? Why are you saying that it's not your role as a deputy minister to inform the minister when this kind of taxpayer abuse...? I'll remind you that the Auditor General found it to be $390 million. This is not a trivial matter. You were deputy minister while this was happening.
