I've already approached my supervisors, at the Quebec legislation administration unit, and the Director General of Parks Canada, who answered me by letter. That letter, which was ultimately very unsatisfactory, reminded me that there was a difference between a classified position and a student assignment, even though I was complaining about the fact that students often found themselves in classified positions. He also referred me to a document concerning conditions of employment at Parks Canada. However, I hadn't received that document because, after I filed an information request with the director of the western Quebec unit, she instead sent me the Treasury Board document, which, of course, isn't the same document. There are of course differences between the two.
