Do you think that this is sound management? Today the report of the auditor general on the oversight over chartered banks was published, but the Bank of Canada was not reviewed in that report.
Far be it from me to cast doubt on these matters, but I believe that it would have been better, for a high-level manager who is hiring somebody, to stipulate this kind of cooling-off period. Let me tell you that I am somewhat astonished, because in the government, when contracts are signed by consultants—as it was my case, and my colleague from Outremont had much to say about it, a year ago—cooling-off periods are established.
