Thank you, Chair, and welcome, Mr. Ferguson, and our guests. I'd like to begin by complimenting you on your French. You're coming along quite nicely.
As Canadians, we rely more and more on the Internet and on online services. If you look across the breadth of our government, services such as Human Resources and Skills Development Canada, Canada Revenue Agency, Veterans Affairs, and Industry Canada are really client-based departments.
Mr. Ferguson, in your view, given the size and scope of online services throughout the government, and particularly in those four departments, which federal department would you say is best to oversee and coordinate government-wide efforts?
