Thank you, Mr. Chair.
One of those orders in council was adopted between January 28 and February 1, 2022, and another one was adopted in mid-February, which is around the beginning of the trucker protest.
Another order in council was adopted when the international community was starting to worry about Russia preparing to invade Ukraine, around February 24. Other orders in council have been adopted since Russia invaded Ukraine.
In response to this, your government said it was acting openly. If it wanted to act openly, why did it use secret orders in council?
Since your government has adopted more of those than previous governments, is there reason to believe that real threats to national security exist and that you wish to keep that information confidential?
Can you tell us more about the application of those orders in council?
