I did show slides that illustrate the fact that, over the last decade, we have gone from that very discouraging flat line stuck at 15 donors per million to an increase in Canada by 50% over the last 10 years. I think we also recognize that although that's a very important accomplishment, there is much more that can still be done.
That work has been done by federally and provincially and by all the different agencies that had a role in that. In fact, there is ongoing work and co-operation. For example, Ronnie Gavsie, who is the head of Trillium Gift of Life from Ontario, sits on our organ donation and transplantation expert advisory committee for Canadian Blood Services and provides input from her expertise in her province in terms of what's working, what's effective, and what we should do.
There are ongoing supports between the different systems, and we would like to see those strengthened and basically carried forward, because that national interaction is critical. With the system of health care and government that we have in Canada, it's not going to be just one national system that runs everything. Basically, this is a provincial responsibility, but there are many jobs that just aren't going to be done by a provincial agency because they involve sharing organs across the country, which happens not infrequently, and putting these sorts of strategies in place in all of our provinces rather than just some.
