Absolutely.
In delivering sport and physical activity, all three levels of government need to work in collaboration. The federal government has a strong leadership role to play. However, yes, a lot of the programs and facilities are certainly controlled by municipalities.
A number of infrastructure granting programs have been provided to municipalities. I would say, however, that this doesn't go far enough. For instance, we just invested in significant active transportation infrastructure. That money went directly to local municipalities to create trails and bike lanes. The challenge is that if we don't support that with strong social marketing and communications to change social norms around active transportation, that infrastructure will get built but not used. We need to build infrastructure, but we also need to get people using it.
That's where I think the federal government could play a strong role in support of what the municipalities are doing.
