Going back to my first question on the size of the department brings us to Bill C-10 and the commissioner. In the Auditor General's report and many reports since the one that we just had a few months ago, the auditor points out that departments, and this includes Indigenous Services Canada as well, have gotten bigger. According to the numbers I'm able to find in the departmental plan, not your department...basically doubled in size...the results aren't getting any better. There are still issues coming from your department, including a lack of monitoring and accountability for some programs, and slow response times for emergencies and crises.
We've had groups mention frustration with the progress on the truth and reconciliation calls to action. I need to know that your department is actually focused on that, given that we just seem to be getting more growth and the outcomes are getting worse.
