Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Easter, for being here.

On that last point, it seems to me Justice O'Connor was quite critical of both the RCMP and CSIS for not taking part in letting that letter go from DFAIT. I'll just make that as a comment.

I would ask you to turn to page 28 of the report, the volume on analysis and recommendations. You already referred to page 29. In the second-last paragraph at the bottom, it starts, “On October 3, 2002...”, and there's material blanked out there. Are you able, recognizing the constraints you're operating under in terms of national security, to tell us whether you were the person who requested that information referred to in that paragraph?
