The provincial literacy coalitions began through a federal initiative. It was the National Literacy Secretariat. It was a federally funded program up until 2014, when that funding ended. We have other partners, but the federal government is a crucial partner, and without that money we are in jeopardy. I believe that for such an important issue all levels of government need to be playing a role.
