Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Let us talk about the budget cuts to our department. I was going to say that, at times, it was like being put on a diet. Every organization has to have the right priorities. Not everything can always be a top priority. With any priority there are always less urgent aspects, and cuts help us somewhat to be more effective and create efficiencies.
That is probably why we can talk about cuts and attaining our objectives. We can say that we are equipped to meet needs, but, naturally, as they say,
the connective tissue has to be rebuilt. Efficiencies have to be created.
It has to be rebuilt. However, budget cuts and very effective systems are not mutually exclusive.
