Scott, one of the interesting things that doesn't readily jump off my resumé is that I was also a member of the Special Senate Committee on Aging, as well as a member of the Senate's agriculture and forestry committee, which conducted a study on rural poverty. As I said, these problems are not urban; they're problems across the board.
One of the things we found out about when we were doing the Special Senate Committee on Aging in particular was the burden that's imposed on the not-for-profit and charitable sector by the regulations that come along with it. Actually, I was in Vancouver, and I'm sorry that I can't remember the name of the agency there, but that agency had created their own specialty within the not-for-profit world in helping not-for-profits handle the paperwork of being a not-for-profit.
I think there has been a recognition of this at the municipal and provincial levels. Many of these regulations are not federal, other than the CRA ones. One of the things you should know, if I could segue and talk about CRA, is that the Canada Revenue Agency has done a terrific job over the past 10 years in reaching out to the not-for-profit sector and sitting down with them, not letting the not-for-profit sector dictate what's going on, but asking the simple questions.
When CRA asks a charity for a particular piece of information, CRA will ask how long it takes to provide that information and how much it costs them. This actually happened. The charity responded and said, “Here's how much time it took.” The person asking the question turned to his colleagues in CRA and asked, “Well, what do we use that data for?” The people at CRA said, “Well, we really don't use that data anymore.”
