That's a good question. Thank you for asking it.
I will build on Mr. Dosanjh's comment. As a funder of Sport Canada and Hockey Canada, you absolutely have a say in where your moneys go and how they are spent. The fact that you have a minister of state responsible for sport clearly indicates that the government has a role in sport. Otherwise the thing wouldn't exist. In fairness, it has been a nebulous body, because it has been its own stand-alone ministry for years and then has gone back and forth.
That said, if you're going to be investing money in amateur sport in this country, then you should have control over some of what goes on. While you don't want to be heavy-handed and micromanage, clearly when initiatives are tied to the broader health of Canadians, both in dealing with pressures on our health care system and the health and well-being of our youth and adults there needs to be a much more evident role. I think you have the moral and legal authority to assume that role.
