Are you confident, Mr. St-Jean? The representatives from Ontario and British Columbia, whom we had the pleasure of receiving recently, told us about the “cultural revolution.” I will summarize their comments. They think that a champion of the cause is essential, that everyone needs to understand that the decision has been made and that there is no going back.
I note a certain dichotomy on page 210 of the report. We read that significant cultural change is required within the central agencies and also that the central agencies say they are ready.
I am not trying to be funny. Are you ready, or are you saying that, even within your department, you will have to work hard to change the culture? The departments are not the only places where there will be resistance.
Do you share the same opinion as the study’s authors?
