That is an understatement, although there are two organizations that are going to champion it. The first organization is Philanthropic Foundations Canada. In fact, they have several meetings in place already over the course of the next two weeks with all kinds of individuals in anticipation of the next budget.
I think the government would have liked to have incorporated it, but they had only 90 days to prepare a budget, and they wanted to make sure...because we are in the era of accountability. Once we make sure we have the accountability right for private foundations, the Association of Fundraising Professionals, the Canadian Association of Gift Planners, and Philanthropic Foundations Canada will all be championing the cause as a coalition. We hope to have all-party agreement, as we did with the capital gains exemption on marketable securities.
In a similar fashion, Mr. Chair, we'd like to be able to have a national philanthropy day. I know that's not your question, but it's very important, because we need to lead, as other countries have, because of the explosion of growth in philanthropy. This is just the beginning.
