Procedure and House Affairs committee It's “the client” I shared it with.

Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee No, I did not.

Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee No. Mr. Chair—
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee No. I said my client was a not-for-profit. And the one client I shared the information capsule with was the University of Calgary. It was shared with one person there.

Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee I did not contact Mrs. Block. I was aware that Russ had been terminated. So I again made the logical conclusion that all members of the committee had been disclosed the information. I wish to underscore that all copies—the electronic copy and the printed copy—of the document were destroyed the next day, that is, on Friday November 19, before we received instruction from the chair of the finance committee.

Procedure and House Affairs committee Mr. Chair, I want to be very clear on this point. I have never received a confidential report of Parliament prior to this incident.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee I consider Russell a friend, yes.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting

Procedure and House Affairs committee That is correct.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee That's correct. This is a precedent.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee My response when I was received it was surprise. I had not asked at any point to receive this report. Upon receiving it, I did glance at it, but I spent no more than ten minutes with the document. I printed one copy. I was the only person who was ever in possession of that copy.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee Actually, I have never received any confidential report of Parliament like this in my career.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee If I could correct, Mr. Chair, I did not forward the report in whole or in part. Moreover, I provided a summation of two points contained within the document, which I acknowledge is confidential, to one client.
December 14th, 2010Committee meeting
Clarke Cross
Procedure and House Affairs committee Yes, I did, and I wish to apologize to all members of this committee, all members of the finance committee, and all parliamentarians for my lapse in judgment at a critical time.
