That's a very generous offer, because, as you can see, I brought my binders of committee testimony.
There are so many different elements to it, and making sure that we're.... I hear words like “not being truthful”. I've been coming to Parliament since 2010. I have told the truth at every committee—my first committee was on organized crime—and I continue to do so. I think that we try to be credible and helpful.
In terms of any specific issue, I do want to go back a bit to one comment about sole-source contracts versus competitive ones. As far as I know, the AG's concern was not in the non-competitive ones. We, of course, look at the various elements. We continually strive to always be competitive. One of the issues I didn't get a chance to come back on was the issue of.... Often, there's so much back-and-forth in the challenge function that it would have been faster to compete it. I think that's a key element.
The other issue I want to get across to parliamentarians and Canadians is that these professional service contracts for staff augmentation don't necessarily have a control—not from a procurement perspective, but from a project management perspective—and that is where I think we need to do a better job being able to articulate and keep very tight in terms of deliverables to avoid situations like the ones we've been talking about.
I'll ask Mr. Laporte to provide more details.
