Thanks, Len. The defibrillator is out in the hallway.
I want to thank each and everyone for appearing today, and especially our witnesses on the west coast, who are up awfully early this morning to contribute.
I'm not saying this is the way I absolutely think, but I'm going to play the devil's advocate. Why should we depend so much on schools for physical education? Why should we depend so much on different groups for physical education? I'm not saying we shouldn't, but to play the devil's advocate, why can we not just rely on the parents? What's the parents' ownership in this?
I hear from public health nurses in my own community who say that more of the onus should be on parents getting their kids out. If you're a little kid, you can only do what your parents let you do, and if your parents don't send you outside, or they don't play, you have no chance.
I don't think I heard anybody talk about the parents. What role do the parents have in this?
