I have a definite opinion. I don't like piecemeal. I've never liked piecemeal. It's like a bandage approach to something that's broken. We all recognize that equalization is broken. I think it's been in play for maybe forty years, since the seventies, although I'm not quite sure when it all came in. But obviously something that old can't work today, based on the country that we are and the federation that we are.
Our chamber doesn't have a magic bullet or a quick fix, but, boy, do we ever want it looked at seriously. It's a very complex problem, and we can't go at it on a piecemeal basis. We really need a solution, and that's going to take time, even though we say in our submission that we want this national gap thing fixed in a year. We want it immediately tabled, so we're concerned that it's not moving forward fast enough.
I actually thought we were going to hear something from the federal government this fall. I know the fall's still happening out there, but I was expecting an announcement of some description in the last month and I haven't heard anything.
