I'll keep this very brief.
I think the reason we haven't seen much action is the diverse and multi-faceted nature of injury. It's complex, it's multi-layered, and there are so many different areas of injury.
The question I would have if I were a politician is where do we start? The start, I think, lies—in answer to your second question—around leadership. I like Tim's analogy of the general contractor to oversee everything and to help us coordinate.
I'll admit that as academics we're probably some of the worst people in the world for silo mentalities and not sharing what it is that we do. I frequently tell my colleagues that we need to get over ourselves. And we seriously have to, because there are best practices and initiatives out there that all of us can learn, not just from sport but from a lot of the other injury prevention initiatives hatt we can look at and embrace to try to find out what the best viable solutions are.
I feel that the federal government in particular can help give us that guidance. I like Louis's suggestion about having, either within PHAC or within our own CDC, an area focused on injury. That's as good a place to start as any.
