In the letters I'm receiving now, because of my comments in the Ottawa Citizen, from the public servants, they do actually go to great lengths to explain concerns that they're having within the public service. Do you believe this might be an issue, that I should be directing these folks to your office? Do you think you are in a position to address...because I think it is not necessarily about whether the issue is legal or illegal. This is probably a simple question of management or mismanagement, or being directed to engage in a practice that would lead to possibly mismanagement within an agency or department. It's an issue that doesn't necessarily fall into the parameters of being an illegal act, but some of the public servants believe it's an unethical act.
