Thank you.
I'd like to begin with some of your previous testimony in relation to questions I asked of you. I asked you how your appointment process came about. I asked if you had applied. You answered the question in committee, and then you sent a lawyer's letter a week later, but the lawyer's letter didn't really clarify things from my perspective.
You said, Ms. Verschuren, that you had never applied for any job in your life, including this one, and that former minister Bains had called you twice to ask you to do it. That's what you testified last time. Is that still true?
