Thank you for the opportunity.
Accessibility for Manitobans and the national or federal role is very relevant to us at this moment. We've been involved as an organization with the provincial government in establishing and creating The Accessibility for Manitobans Act of 2013. It's a good act. The standards are in the process of being developed. I had a good conversation with Mr. Hicks this morning. I certainly am hopeful and I appreciate some of his comments that are supportive of how we're trying to move ahead as a provincial organization with the support of the province.
We also have been looking to some degree at the Ontario model, but we need leadership from the federal government. That has been part of our discussion with our accessibility for Manitobans advisory council. We have directly referenced and would ask that you provide some of that detail to would allow us to play a role in having a better standard for Canadians with disabilities, not only Manitobans or Ontarians.
Thank you for the opportunity. I think it's very important that you move ahead with that.
