I agree. I also believe the closer you get to the grassroots, the better the decision-making is. As you said, it's better than having someone in Ottawa telling the provinces and municipalities what to do. That's one of the things I said when I was in local government. I said that when I went to Ottawa I wanted to make sure that the spending powers and the decision-making were at the local level.
That's why our transfer payments are secure—3% per annum for social transfer, a 6% increase compounded annually to 2014 for health care—to ensure that the sustainable, reliable, predictable funding source is there, along with our gas tax now with local government. So all those decisions are made on a local and provincial government basis, and whether the provinces decide that they need to put more money in social housing for affordable families or for seniors or supportive housing, that will be decided at the local and provincial levels.
