Canada’s Auditor General Karen Hogan on Thursday delivered her 2021 report, including five performance audit reports to the House of Commons. The AG’s audit of the government’s procurement of complex IT systems found that many of the aging systems need to be replaced, including systems that deliver employment insurance, old-age security and pensions, payroll for government employees and systems that support government telecommunications structure.
