I believe that the clerk said at the beginning of the meeting that we used a number of tools to engage public servants from across the country in the Blueprint 2020 process. For example, there were round table discussions in the departments. We used a new tool, Web 2.0, as well as Twitter and our Intranet site. We have a sort of wiki that allows public servants to participate internally. A number of workshops were held to discuss the future of the public service. These brought together various communities, including new professionals, managers, and those responsible for managing budgets, for example. The goal was to find common points of view and to determine what we can do together in each department, agency or office to implement these new perspectives. For us, this was truly an exercise in listening to the comments and opinions of public servants.
