Do you believe that the civil service should be able
to do more of its own IT work?
And if that's the case when you're Prime Minister,
how will you make that happen given that you're looking
at cuts?
The answer is yes, and we'll make it happen because
we're going to cut back on the outside consultants.
So these two things are not in opposition.
They are in concurrence. We want to cut back on
outside consultants because public servants do the work more accountably
and they do it more affordably.
We know that because public servants don't cost $1990.00 a
day,
they cost significantly less than that.
So we're going to save money by reversing Trudeau's doubling
of outside consulting fees.
Thank you.
But there were contractors involved in C Phoenix as well.
I'd like to understand what you will do when you
are Prime Minister,
Sir.
This the Auditor General found that the civil service didn't
have these skills.
Why is that? The public service doesn't have these skills.
It's insane. We've increased the size of the public service
by 50%
under Justin Trudeau, and none of those 100,000 extra people
have the skills to design an app that a couple
of IT workers.
Separately and as a joke designed in a single weekend.
How is it possible that a couple of guys got
a stack of pizza boxes and a case of beer
and,
as a joke, redesigned the Arrivecan app from scratch in
a weekend?
And yet we can. And yet and yet the 100,000
public servants Trudeau hired cannot do the very same thing.
That points to the fact that he is an incompetent
Prime Minister who is wasting our money.
He's not worth the cost.
