There are background checks for all order in council appointees, many of whom come from ministers. But it's a two-way check, not a four-way check. They do the RCMP and CSIS. They don't do the other two.

There may well be ministerial appointments that don't go through the order in council process, where they may or may not. I don't know.

Marc or Rennie, do you know?
