It's those kinds of points where the current government has a mandate to change things, but I really hope that they keep the programs that previous governments have put forward that really do work and that those decisions aren't made ideologically. I appreciate your presentation today.
I'm going to move on to Sport Matters and Canadian Parks and Recreation.
First of all, I do appreciate what you do. I hope the government does take a look at the 24% increase you've been asking for. I've met many of the athletes, and they are excellent representatives. It's part of investing in our brand and in our excellence. I'm going to go specifically to the Canadian Parks and Recreation Association.
I believe that in 2014 we made changes to the gas tax, which allowed municipalities.... By the way, we indexed that, we doubled it, we put it into legislation, and then we allowed municipalities to look after recreational infrastructure with it. That's ongoing sustained funding.
The problem I have with your suggestion is that by designating a particular fund, you're going to have some municipalities that jump on it, whether their finances are there or not. Some will apply and some won't. By using that method, you're going to see that some areas receive the money and some don't.
To me, the fairest way to do it is through a gas tax. Do you still think that putting it in a particular fund is the best way to fund this?
