On the first question, I've asked politicians in Alberta why this isn't an issue, and it's because their constituents don't think it's an issue. If three kids were to die from meningitis in Ottawa today, you would rest assured that it was an issue, but because 50 kids are going to die from injury.... The point is, we have to get Canadians to understand that this is a priority, and that's where this body could say that it should be a national priority and that you're going to work with the provinces on it.
There's no sense in reinventing the wheel. Let's steal what New Zealand has done and what Australia has done. We know these colleagues; they have told they will share their national strategies with us. In the document that we'll be providing to you—it just wasn't translated—we call for the establishment of a Canadian injury prevention network that would do exactly what you're describing, bringing together the people who are out there.
The trouble with the people who are out there is that they are getting frustrated. As Paul said, they have been struggling for 15 years to try to make this happen, and it's a revolving door. There's not enough “stick power” in it, because they see that our provincial and federal counterparts really don't have an interest in the problem.
Injury in America, from the Institute of Medicine, is the stage you're at. You create that document with some seed dollars and then look towards the creation within the Public Health Agency of Canada—which is, I think, where it should reside—of a focus on injury. I can tell you that the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons will be there to work with you on it.
Does that answer your question?
