Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
My first question is for Privy Council Office officials.
According to a March 26 article, the Trudeau government announced $30 million in advertising expenditures to counter COVID-19. On March 26, Canada was going through the most intense period of the pandemic.
Why is $48.7 million now being requested through supplementary estimates A 2020-2021? What is more important now than in March?
Does the budget need to be bigger now than it was back then?
