Thank you very much for the question.
You're quite right: GBA+ has been around for more than 30 years, and it is a significant discipline. Canada is a world leader in this space.
I would note that, in the spring economic statement, there are even snapshots of various pieces of analyses of various investments. We know that the Standing Committee on Public Accounts issued a February 2026 report. We are preparing a response to that shortly.
I would say that what we're seeing in government, in terms of our ability to apply GBA+, is promising. We just got the results in from our seventh capacity survey, in 2025. We've streamlined the questions to make it easier, and in fact we have a response rate that is 10% up from last year. It's now 83% instead of 73%. We are seeing more evidence that GBA+ is being addressed at the problem or definition stage in addition to the stage of options and decisions. We are very encouraged by the fact that we're seeing it much earlier in the process.
I would be remiss if I did not mention that this is GBA awareness week. We spend a lot of time during this week working with our colleagues to raise awareness. This week is an important week for that purpose.
