Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to Mr. Guimont. I can add Pascal, COBOL, and BLISS as well to that. Had I learned how to type without just using one finger, I would probably have stayed in that particularly area, but now we're back to one thumb so it works out not too badly for me.
On the website, you had talked about having 227,000 hits come in. It's being used well, and I think that's something that is important. Of course you were also talking about how you get zero off-hour calls.
I know one of the things we talked about back in the fall when we first discussed this was the idea of going from the eight hours to the fifteen hours, which basically took our five-and-a-half time zones and made sure we were there for business hours. I think that was important. I can see the rationale for what we were talking about there, and again perhaps from the discussions we had maybe you bolstered a little bit in the other nine hours we have, to make sure that was being covered. I respect that part.
When I look at the Auditor General's report and I see the Auditor General talking about the $780 million and how the other split was, with the public safety officials talking about the $20.9 million of the remaining $210 million, I see that accounting and I respect that accounting. I believe that's what the Auditor General was looking at and saw those numbers and went through from there.
I guess I have a couple of points I really want to talk about as well. Could you speak to the steps the National Cross Sector Forum was taking with regard to the risk management activities and looking at how that partners throughout Canada? I wonder if we could have some comment with regard to what we have seen.
Auditor General, what did you see with this National Cross Sector Forum? Is that doing what you think should happen as far as risk management is concerned?
