I want to move to the point about consultants and procuring the services of consultants.
You mentioned that consultants are used, you believe, to sidestep financial accountability by replacing public servants with consultants. In the article you wrote, I believe back in 2021, you stated, “At any given time, an alarming percentage of the public service workforce is in what our colleagues at PIPSC have dubbed the shadow public service.”
I'm wondering if you can tell us a bit more about that shadow public service and what it is costing Canadians.
