Je pense que le processus des consultations prébudgétaires publiques, qui n'existait pas avant, aurait au moins dû avoir un effet considérable sur votre ministère, puisque les Canadiens sont venus faire part de leurs préoccupations qui comprenaient toutes ces choses comme la maturité de leurs industries, la démographie, etc.
If anything, I think the process of having an open pre-budget consultation process, which was never in place before, should have had some tremendous impact inside your department, because Canadians then engaged and they brought their concerns to the table, which include all of those things like the maturation of their industries, the demographics in there, and other things.
