This association movement has made it possible to create all the literacy centres and health centres. Today, those centres are in a somewhat fragile position. From the grass-roots level, we're having trouble supporting them. Of course, the Montfort case was decisive, but we probably wouldn't have had the same results without the Court Challenges Program. In the case of the Sudbury Community Health Centre, the problem is imminent. The provincial government is refusing to subsidize that centre's satellites. This is the kind of situation in which, in the context of the strategy, we relied on that program. But it's been cancelled.
We're seeing a regression. At the same time, a need is increasingly being felt among the associations in the field. They want to be supported so that they can do what must be done to help everyone. The literacy field is in difficulty. The same is true of our museums. This is our culture, and we want to transmit it to our young people and to everyone else. There have been cuts there too.
Earlier we were talking about assimilation. On that point, we have to be able to convey this culture through programs and activities for everyone. It's increasingly necessary that the work we have to do be funded so that we can support everything that's been created over the years.
