I'm Canadian, but there is a difference between civil servants and the management.
I'm guessing that it's the same.
Your frontline civil servants aren't the wealthy ones, they are working a job.
It's their bosses and directors, who control the budgets, and can decided who get's the juicy private contracts.
Isn't the PM from a very wealthy family? That's the sort of thing I am talking about, not the civil servant working at the DMV (or it's equivalent) counter.
