Within the centre mandate, I'm going to take all of the research that we've done—and we have a lot more in the pipe—and I'm going to write an interim report: What does the research tell us? What are the predominant themes and what are the linkages? What's going on in the north? Then I'm going to ground-truth it; I'm going to take it back to the region.
Then I'm going to couple it with international best practices. I'm going to look at a cost-benefit analysis. At the end of it, we're probably going to be able to come up with something that's called “Future options for Canada's north”. It's not a northern strategy, because I don't believe in one strategy for Canada's north. I think that's off the mark, actually. I don't believe in a balanced approach; I believe in cutting-edge policy-making that addresses critical issues. For that, you actually need to go a little further. You need to have people state the priorities.
