Steven MacKinnon at the Industry, Science and Technology Committee

Liberal

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Mr. Longfield.

I'm glad to be here today.

Mr. Fellegi and Mr. Smith, I think Statistics Canada is a leader in the statistics community, and the two of you have helped build that reputation.

I want to thank you both for your service to the agency and to Canada.

I am concerned, Mr. Smith. You dealt a lot with—can we call them—IT issues. Do you consider yourself an IT expert?
