Thank you.
The biggest question that we need to put a final point on, without deliberating any further, is this: Who at the CBSA was responsible for the decision to choose GC Strategies, also known as Government of Canada Strategies? We've had evidence from Cameron MacDonald on two occasions confirming, and Antonio Utano confirming, that it was Minh Doan.
We also have, and this was really telling, a public document, an ATIP response from the CBSA, that confirms, in annex A of the document, that in answer to “Who made the decision to contract GC?”, it was “My office”, in reference to Minh Doan's office and Kelly Belanger's office—the same office:
My office made the decision to pursue the contract with GC Strategies.
The two proposals for the work were presented to the CIO and President, and the decision was made to proceed with GC Strategies as their proposal and approach aligned with what the CBSA was looking for, particularly rapid staff augmentation.
The Deloitte proposal was a managed service using their Cloud instance. This would have involved additional risk, and did not align with our direction to build Cloud/Mobile competencies [with] the Agenc[ies].
Are you prepared, right here and right now, to confirm once and for all that it was Minh Doan who ultimately made the decision to go with GC Strategies—yes or no?
