I've watched some of the other witnesses and some of my peers talk about this, and you yourself speak so passionately. We urged the government to avoid this type of policy because we knew what it would cause. We knew that it meant that we would get certain calls requesting us to somehow magically become a part of that coalition so that we could also be matched.
This creates an issue not just at the fundraising level but also for us to quickly disburse funds, knowing that the government is behind us. I've heard from the previous testimony and directly from the ministry itself that pre-vetting is necessary because that is what the government has to do, but there are groups of us that have government funding. We work on several large projects and we are pre-vetted. However, we were still excluded from the matching fund. That creates a whole other problem for us.
