Thank you very much for that important conversation.
I'm going to switch directions here. I want to talk a little bit about modernization going forward. I think we've litigated the Phoenix pay issue to a great extent.
I particularly appreciate, Mr. Wallace, your candour and your honest answer. That's how we change things.
Looking at the world in a broader scope, I see a number of issues, whether it be the CRA talking to HRSDC, the cyber-breaches that happened at the CRA, or the fact that Canada lags behind the European Union, Australia and the United States in money spent on R and D relative to GDP. These are challenges, and I believe that the next 10 to 20 years will be dominated by those countries that can get ahead and modernize.
Mr. Wallace, as I said, you've been spectacularly honest and candid, but perhaps you can put a forward-looking lens on how Canada, particularly the government, can capture the future by leading—not just fixing, but leading—in modernization and IT development.
