Thank you, first of all, for your encouraging comments. I take them to heart and I want to thank you for that.
As to what could be done further, because of our appearance here the first time and the things that have happened, a lot of things have improved in terms of communication, in terms of awareness of the H1N1 virus and the seriousness of it and the need to address those issues.
We're going into the second wave. As I've reported in my presentation of the things we have done, but more so because of the 19 pandemic coordinators Glen has mentioned, we're going to be able to really have the plans in place to be very effective in preparing for other pandemics.
This is a wake-up call for all of us, but more so for the first nations, about the need to prepare. We had talked about pandemic preparedness before the H1N1 outbreak, and I don't know many people really believed there'd be such a thing as a pandemic outbreak, but now we're going through that experience.
In terms of the future, what we're learning from all this is the need to deal with those issues that make us vulnerable. I hope those things are not lost once we all come through this pandemic outbreak, through the second wave. Once we're out of it, I hope we can continue to focus on the need to deal with those issues that make us the most vulnerable when it comes to pandemic outbreaks. But not only that, we need to have the federal government and the governments work with first nations in the way we're actually working with governments at this time with this H1N1 outbreak. If we keep that kind of cooperative working relationship, I think we can deal with those issues.
