Thank you, Chair. I'll try to be brief.
In many senses you have one of the most dangerous jobs in the civil service, but in another sense, you have the safest and most secure job in the civil service. Your organization has become the darling, the sweethearts, of the Conservative regime.
You're the manifestation of the glory that is Harper's Rome. You're the only department they see fit to spend any money on at all, in fact billions and billions. Everywhere else they're cutting and hacking and slashing and destroying. But with you, they're building and building.
Are you in collective bargaining now?
