However, in that scenario, there's a big difference between a desire for independence, which is entirely praiseworthy, and the risk of winding up in a situation where the department has virtually no right of review, as is the case with the ArriveCAN app and the WE charity, which I just mentioned.
You could say there have been no problems in a number of cases, and I would absolutely agree with you on that.
Whatever the case may be, do you question the idea of having public funds be administered by third parties?
