It's fairly restricted. The products that have eco-labelling are available to government employees and offices of that type. They're not widely available to the average consumer. The program could expand, of course. But in respect of the types of labelling that we're recommending, if we had more information about what was in products, we might be pleasantly surprised. At present, industry doesn't need to tell us what's in any products, except foods and cosmetics.
I've been trying to tell industry for a long time that they should let us know what's in their products—especially if there's something we need to be worried about. We're all going to have loved ones who come down with an illness—loved ones who never smoked, who ate well and exercised. We're going to wonder what caused it.
Eco-labelling is an interesting system, and it can work in some cases. I think this system, though, is a better one, and there is global action to adopt it. Canada is just waiting for the United States. If the United States was moving faster, we would be moving faster too. Europe has moved on it. Europe has established timelines—they will put a label on products so that people will know about them. In most cases, we hope the label won't even be on products, because the products will be safe.
