Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question.
We are in Ottawa. I would like to reassure all public service employees, who do exceptional work. I think everyone in the House can applaud them. These are men and women who are there to serve Canadians. We thank them for their work. We value their work.
In our plan, we are saying that we will bring the public service back to a more sustainable size. We will do so in a compassionate and judicious manner. Most of these measures will be implemented through attrition. I think families here in Ottawa can sleep soundly tonight. We will be there for them.
