I appreciate your comments on that. Obviously this is an area where I think it behoves us to review what has been done to date, what has worked, what hasn't worked, and what could be done differently and better in the future.
I don't think those decisions have been made in the weeks since the budget was passed, but certainly if the honourable member or any members of the committee have ideas on how to get that last mile done correctly, how to help service rural and remote areas of our country, I welcome them. I believe that 18% of our country does not have regular access to broadband to date, and it's the tough 18%, as we know. Sometimes there are topographical challenges. There certainly are in terms of how widespread it is over a large surface area, and a lot of our folks live in those areas. It's not an easy task. Certainly if members of this committee have some experiences or some ideas that would be helpful, I welcome that.
