Mr. Speaker, on February 1, the Minister of Human Resources told the House: “Departmental employees do not have individual quotas.”
She said that allegations of a quota system were “absolutely false”. The problem is that they are absolutely true. Just because she used her thesaurus to find a synonym for quota does not mean that a quota system is not being used.
When employees are faced with a target of $500,000 that will affect their careers if they do not meet it, that is a quota.
What excuse does the Prime Minister have to justify the behaviour of his minister, who is not telling the truth?
