Thank you so much. I have here one of our co-champions to lead the campaign.
First of all, it should be the public service in the national capital region; they raised over $21.4 million in the charitable campaign. That was announced last night. Our department raised over $1 million. We exceeded our campaign target, which was $925,000.
In this climate of fiscal restraint, and at a time when our department transferred a thousand employees to Shared Services Canada, we were a little anxious about being able to raise $1 million. But we were able to do so, and we're quite proud of that.
I thank you for the question.
