The invitation to apply will come from the Government of Canada; it's our program, but we have partners, we have stakeholders that we want to be part of that decision and trigger that invitation. That is why, as we have moved toward the EOI, we've had long and very substantive consultations with all the provinces and territories. They're all interested, they're all willing to try EOI, to be part of EOI, and I think many of them see it in as positive a light as we do.
As you've probably seen from the reports online and from discussions in this committee, we had intensive consultations with employers, but we have more of those to do to come to an agreement as to how we interface with them in the case of EOI. There are privacy considerations. We don't want to violate our obligations. We've included the Privacy Commissioner in our discussions at every stage to ensure we protect the information that is part of the expression of interest system. But at the same time, we want companies to be able to give us the labour market signals that are absolutely crucial for this to be able to work. Even the provinces will not play much of a role in the EOI without input from employers.
So getting that interface right with employers is absolutely crucial. We know it will be there. As you've seen from our reports, we have the general shape of how it's going to happen, but we have a lot of work to do in 2014 to articulate the details of how that interface will work.
