I want to understand the situation well, Ms. Fox. The problem has a cause. What was unrealistic, the goal or the timelines?

We can set the COVID-19 pandemic aside. Indeed, the Auditor General's report notes that even before the pandemic, some projects were slowing down and many were already behind schedule. So the pandemic cannot be blamed.

Is it incompetence, an unrealistic goal? What is the problem?

We can redo action plans and meet again in 5, 10 or 15 years, but I for one do not want people to have to continue to live in precarious and unacceptable conditions.
