Commissioner, I read and reread pages 24 and 25 of your report in French. I would like to bring them to the attention of anyone who is interested in the question.
The title is quite revealing: “A Risky Governmental Approach.” You talk about a government that is not required to conduct consultations before making these changes. You say there is a real risk in the decentralization initiated, that the official language champions in the various departments and agencies have fears about these changes, and that there is cause for concern about the Treasury Board Secretariat's true capacity to discharge its responsibilities. You suggest it isn't too late to get back on course, but that it must be done.
Did you discuss this with those responsible at the Treasury Board?
