Meena, maybe you could ask the department to give us a full report on why. In every consultation we have done, stickiness in traffic was found to be the most important thing to a website--how you get people to come, to see that they trust it, and then build the traffic. To start a new website is very difficult for people. So the decision of Health Canada to start myriad new websites when there was one that was already working just seems to fly in the face of what any communication consultant would ask you to do.
