Yachtie -> Obama on jobs for Americans (10/4/2013 10:32:07 AM)

No wonder.

A Canadian tech firm that has provided service to that country's single-payer health care system is behind the glitch-ridden United States national health care exchange site healthcare.gov.

GCI Federal is a subsidiary of Montreal-based CGI Group. With offices in Fairfax, Va., the subsidiary has been a darling of the Obama administration, which since 2009 has bestowed it with $1.4 billion in federal contracts, according to USAspending.gov.

The "CGI" in the parent company's name stands for "Conseillers en Gestion et Informatique" in French, which roughly translates to "Information Systems and Management Consultants." However, the firm offers another translation: "Consultants to Government and Industry."

The company is deeply embedded in Canada’s single-payer system. GCI has provided IT services to the Canadian Ministries of Health in Alberta, British Columbia, New Brunswick, Quebec and Saskatchewan, as well as to the national health provider, Health Canada, according to GCI Group’s Canadian website.



And Obama has pontificated so much on outsourcing. [;)] Since government has been shutdown, I'd ask him to please turn off the lights as he leaves. [:D]

Yeah, except it is all hallucinatory masturbation for feeble minded teabaggers.

It is headquarted and incorporated in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is Global Consulting International.


The washington examiner is there with breitbart and other fecund Joseph Goebbles style propaganda sites, so much worshipped by the untutored teabaggers. The constant misinformation being useful to make teabaggers think they are relevant.

From Wiki -

CGI Group Inc. is a Canadian multinational information technology (IT) consulting, systems integration, outsourcing, and solutions company headquartered in Montreal, Canada. It was founded in 1976 by Serge Godin, André Imbeau, and Jean Brassard. In August 2012, CGI acquired the British IT services company Logica for $2.8 billion, making it the sixth-largest IT services provider in the world.[2] CGI employs approximately 69,000 people in over 400 offices across 40 countries.

CGI has a primary listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the S&P/TSX 60. It has a secondary listing on the New York Stock Exchange. CGI is included in the Forbes Global 2000 ranking of the 2,000 largest public companies in the world.[3]


I believe you shall find GCI is a wholly different enterprise.

And that is wonderful, and Marion Morrisson is not any Relation to Dutch Reagan. (who is not dutch).

Those companies have nothing to do with http://gci-usa.com/ who actually is the guys.

Just like the Nazi party was not socialist just because it was in their name, CGI has nothing to do with GCI.

And something or another federal has nothing to do with IT contracts here in our government regarding this.

I believe you will find your touted company is wholly typical teabagger asswipe, and actually nothing at all to do with this.

The software is open source.

CGI Federal used to be American Management Services and has been doing business with the US government at least since I was stationed in DC in the 80's. So yet another instance of some right wing hate media lying and being believed by right wingers who cannot be bothered to even check with wiki.
