Comme on l'a dit, le gouvernement procède ainsi pour s'assurer que le poste intéressera et attirera une personne très compétente qui recevra un pouvoir officiel grâce à une nomination par le gouverneur en conseil, à la recommandation du ministre.
I think, as we've been discussing, this is designed to ensure that the position will be of interest to and will attract a highly competent person and will provide them with the imprimatur of a GIC appointment on the minister's recommendation so that it will be clear that this person speaks for the Government of Canada on this issue and is by no means a minor functionary appointed by someone other than a minister or the Governor in Council.
