Mr. Speaker, according to the estimates tabled on Tuesday, the Treasury Board secretariat will be creating 10 more management positions at a cost of $3.5 million to the taxpayer. That is $350,000 for each executive. The President of the Treasury Board must have some spectacular executives in mind for that kind of salary.
How can the President of the Treasury Board pad his executive suite with 10 more managers while in the same breath cut 45,000 jobs from the rest of the civil service?
