Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Hamilton, congratulations on your recent appointment. Welcome to the committee this morning, and thank you very much for your time.
Having worked in the federal public service myself for a number of years, unlike some of my friends from across the way, it's not a revelation to me that senior leaders move from department to department within the federal government.
It's clear that you have very strong skills from Finance and the Treasury Board Secretariat. I'm certain that those will be very well applied at the Department of the Environment.
I'm just curious to know, and perhaps this is a bit of a philosophical question as well, could you speak a little bit about what you would like to achieve or hope to achieve personally from either a leadership or a policy perspective in your new role?
