In the philosophy of human resource management in the public service, that is not our perception of the role we have. Our role is that of a leader that must make the departments, institutions, deputy ministers and official languages champions accountable. They have been informed of those results, which show that there is a horizontal challenge, like the other subject that we addressed earlier and for which we invite them to take the necessary steps. The fact that we have identified it emphasizes to them that this is an area requiring improvement. The champions therefore go back to the departments to play the role they have to play to ensure measures are taken.
