The question goes to my opening comments, which were that I believe the government has a role to acknowledge that charities play a significant role in policy development in this country. There's a long history of doing it, no matter what the sector. It's difficult. I know there's been some pressure on the environmental sector lately, and in effect it diminishes the fact that a lot of the work that environmental organizations and charities are doing is actually to promote government policy and strengthen it in a way that impacts on all Canadians equally.
I would just hope that in the debate on the single issue that seems to be dominating the media these days we don't lose sight of the fact that all charities, environmental organizations included, are actually working toward the civic good of this country.
