Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. White, I had the honour to serve with Peter Stoffer, an absolutely fine gentleman, but I can honestly tell you that I have never ever heard anyone use the words “Peter Stoffer” and “saint” in the same sentence.
I have a brief story, if I may. Peter was one of these guys who would go through Parliament and call every single person by name. It didn't matter whether it was another MP, a security guard or somebody in the cafeteria. He called everyone by name. The reason he was able to do that is that he thought everyone's name was “Buddy”.
Mr. White, I'm going to begin with the other patron saint you referenced: Dr. MacKinnon.
Dr. MacKinnon, in your remarks, you talked about the challenges associated with caseworkers or with the availability of caseworkers. This has been a vexing problem over the years. It's certainly one that we inherited and have put a lot of money into, for more caseworkers with smaller caseloads. I would like to hear from you if you could elaborate a bit more on this caseworker challenge. We do hear a lot from the union about it. I would like your advice on how we solve that.
