Mr. Chair, thank you.
Guests, thank you so much. Your comments have been very helpful to me. I've been trying to wrap my head around an issue that I've discovered very recently is very important.
I want to follow up on Mr. Drouin's question about our federal nature here in Canada. The anecdotal conversations I've been having with folks in the past few days seem to be that there is a problem in Ontario but not so much in the Prairies. Is that accurate? If that is the case, I'm wondering what best practices we as a government can implement to deal with the “problem”, and to address the differing nature of our country—Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba versus Ontario, versus the Atlantic, versus my neck of the woods in B.C.
This is to any of the witnesses.
