Thank you.
You mentioned in your opening statement the issue of government procurement. I wanted to ask you a question on that.
A report was written in April 2024 by your organization that had to do with “historic innovation underperformance”. We've seen, under this Liberal government, IT procurement policies and management that has led to ArriveCAN-style results favouring well-connected friends, wasting taxpayer dollars and not following government processes.
With that, have you seen how this might damage our innovation economy and the reputation of Canada's tech sector, with the way the government is currently managing its procurement system?
