Thank you.
The 2025 Public Accounts show that there was an increase in personnel expenses of $2.3 billion. So we have now reached $19.5 billion.
In budget 2024, you highlighted how important it was to strengthen the integrity of the public service. Meanwhile, personnel expenses have grown from $67 billion in 2023 to $76 billion in 2025.
How can we explain the fact that we are spending more and more on professional services, and more and more on personnel, but we are not seeing more services for Canadians and we are seeing more and more abuses in that area?
