Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, Mr. Easter, and thank you for coming.
I want to go back to the question of the leaks. In July 2003, as you mentioned and as the committee knows, several leaks were made alleging and including items that Mr. Arar had travelled to Afghanistan and had some activities related to terrorist activities. As the Solicitor General, were you ever briefed on those allegations, as to whether in fact, yes, those were things that the RCMP believed; or no, we don't know where these leaks came from and they contain inaccurate information?
