Thank you, Madam Chair.
I do thank you, witnesses, for being here this afternoon. We appreciate your testimony thus far.
I want to follow up on something you talked about, and that's the decade of minimal hiring. It caused a gap in terms of the escalation of that grouping that otherwise would have been hired at that point when it came to the groups that would have gone into management roles.
You spoke about demographics a little bit, and you mentioned the female component. You talked about visible minorities and people with disabilities. I'm wondering about the demographic of age. How is it right now within your department? Do you have any concerns relating to pending retirements?
I guess the question is are you as lopsided as the private sector is right now?
