Mr. Speaker, I did not refer to replacing civil servants with technology. I did not say that at all. What I did say was that we could mechanize offices and make more efficient the administration that we have. There will still be civil servants. This will never be, at least in our mandate, a totally mechanized system.
The Canada pension plan is absolutely precious to Canadians and certainly to the Liberal government which established it in the first place. When we look at the Canada pension plan we know as a government that it is important that we continue to streamline it so that the money in this plan goes to its clients and not to inefficiencies which have been built into the system, particularly over the last nine years.
