With due respect, I have very little time and that is not what I asked. How did the witnesses come to approve the appointment of Mr. Boucher when they were supposed to effect a change in culture as public interest directors? When he was appointed, his remuneration breached CIROC policy and the board had to row back on that. I want an explanation of their decision as public interest directors. Did the witnesses see much of Mr. Boucher's performance before the committee?
