I'll perhaps have my colleague, Mr. Arseneault, add a word or two after a minute. But from what I can see, Mr. Cullen, there doesn't seem to be any kind of mechanism within the federal government to look at issues like climate change, and many other issues that are part of the environmental file, in a coordinated way over time.
I find that surprising. This is a huge entity that is being managed in many areas very well. But in this area, these individual departments that are being tasked to do various elements of environmental protection, including climate change, don't seem to be working together. They seem to be almost flying blind, to a certain extent.
What we're calling for is something that isn't here, as you know, which is an overall plan, or a sense, from the government's perspective, from the government as a whole, of what we are trying to achieve over time. Who is going to contribute to that? Which departments are going to have a say and are going to be able to carry out activities and programs to contribute to that, whether it be climate change or other things, and then get on with it and measure that?
