Shared Services Canada was announced by me and Minister Ambrose in July, I believe, of this year. Finally after years of preparation and discussion, it is the consolidation of not all, but much, of the IT services found in the Government of Canada.
I would pose it to you this way, Mr. Cannan. What we have in the Government of Canada right now are 100 different email systems and 300 different data centres and, I believe, 3,000 different IT networks. Some consolidation is needed. It actually will make the Government of Canada more efficient. It will save money. It will increase the morale of the public service. And it will increase the morale of your constituents, because as they're dealing with government on a face-to-face basis, when IT is working properly and is working in sync, that will make a big difference. So that's the role of Shared Services Canada. And they will be rolling out their business plans in the weeks and months ahead.
