I have always enjoyed this committee for exactly that reason. We stay focused on the work at hand when we're here. I believe this committee is an extension of the good independent work that my office does. I honestly don't believe anyone in Canada should silence the Auditor General—I don't believe any levels of auditor general should be silenced—and this committee plays a huge role in that respect.
