On the Corporate Planning Applications Group

'Hiya. What does CPAG stand for?
'It stands for Corporate Planning Applications Group.
It's the City's interdepartmental group of bureaucrats who handle 
planning applications for land use, subdivision and development
permits. It's a happy group of planners, engineers, technicians and 
other hangers-on from countless city departments, including 
but not limited to Development & Building Approvals, Urban
Development, Transportation Planning, and Park Development &
Operations.'
'So it's a full body cavity search.'
'Yes. For planning purposes. You're familiar with the technique'
'Sure. I used to smuggle contraband cigarettes through Quebec.'
'You'll find the planning approval process quite similar.'
'I think that's why they hired me.'
'We never can have enough mules.'
