That is an excellent answer.
Mr. Picard, if I may, I would first like to say that I understand the fatigue that you expressed in your presentation. Having been on the other side, first in Quebec City as an MNA and a minister, and now in Ottawa, I realize that there can be study after study after study and things still do not change. I recently had the opportunity to go to Kanesatake and visit a seniors' centre. I was able to see for myself how bureaucratic obstacles and lack of money and resources can have a cruel effect on direct services to people.
I think that is what was behind Mr. Lessard's question, in a way. It seems to me that the federal government clearly has a problem with its ineffectiveness in both jurisdiction over, and delivery of, health matters. Objectively, the feds are responsible for veterans' health—a disaster, with health on reserves—also a disaster, and with health in prisons—need I say more?
Is there no way to look for effective people and to work closer together, at least in heath care? You have pointed out the crying need for housing very well, but I am trying to focus on health. Could that be part of the solution? They are just not good at it.
