UNE National President Kevin King made the following statement:
Last week, the Prime Minister appointed former Deputy Minister of Public Services and Procurement (PSPC) Marie Lemay to the Privy Council Office. She was in charge of overlooking the implementation of Phoenix.
Bill Matthews is replacing her, effective January 28, 2019. Let’s hope that the new Deputy Minister will be more responsive and proactive regarding the Phoenix fiasco file.
When poorly performing bureaucrats get promoted instead of discharged for incompetence or incapacity, it is beyond the comprehension of federal public servants who perform publicly funded services for the benefit of Canadians.
