Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
We've now insinuated Mr. McDonald into this discussion. I can't help but share the view that Mr. Jean has just expressed: that the time lag between the company becoming aware and actually doing something is troubling, to say the very least.
What's even more troubling, Mr. McDonald, is that you recognized there was a problem. In the particular case I indicated earlier on with the Venza, it took Toyota Canada 11 weeks after you had given them an indication of your express concern that they might actually be in violation of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. You allowed them—I don't know whether you did it, whether the deputy did it, or whether you had instructions from the minister—to wait for 11 weeks while a faulty or defective vehicle was on the road.
Why would you have done that?
