Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has asked Canada's top public servant to look into the government's procurement process over what he said seemed to be a "highly illogical and inefficient" contract to develop the ArriveCan app.
The process has raised questions about why the public service could not hire those firms directly or do the work in-house."That's exactly the question that I just asked of the public service," Trudeau said at a press conference Monday when asked about those concerns. "To be clear, we did not build ArriveCan. We were approached to provide a team for consideration to fulfil certain ArriveCan requirements," Firth told the committee in his opening statement.
Newly released documents obtained by the newspaper show the individual workers came from large firms, including BDO Canada, Optiv, KPMG, Macadamian Technologies, Level Access and Distill Mobile.
