I would hope that both the minister and the community would see that as a really important part of my role. I clearly see it as that, and as I indicated earlier, I have already started having conversations with colleagues in Ontario so that I can really understand the issues in Ontario. Ontario and Quebec are different from Alberta and B.C. They have small communities where they don't have access to central radiopharmacies, so I need to understand those issues very well. And I'm delighted with the conversations I've had so far.
