Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for being here today for another session of interesting questions following the Auditor General's report.
Ms. Jeffrey, several times during your testimony and in response to my colleague's questions, you cited the urgency of the pandemic as justification for acting quickly. I have here contracts between Health Canada and GC Strategies that were awarded non‑competitively in January 2019. This totals $104,000. Normally, a procurement process must be followed above a certain amount.
Can we get some details on the types of contracts that the Public Health Agency of Canada signed with GC Strategies? Why did GC Startegies get these contracts?
