We know you took up your duties with Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness in December of 2003, which was right after Mr. Arar came back to Canada and had his media conference where he advised us that he had been tortured, and he suspected, rightly, that there was Canadian complicity in the fact that he was sent there. So I take it, as a member of cabinet at the time, that you were aware of the case before you became the minister, and that after becoming the minister responsible for the RCMP you checked into it and saw that they may have supplied some inaccurate information to the Americans about him.
This is going back to my original question. Were you aware, for example, of your government's efforts to seek his release and the attempted one-voice letter?
