I'm going to pick up the question that was raised at the same time that I touch on that.
I tried to outline what that the strategy might look like. First of all, it has to have some clear, agreed upon goals. I think there is an appetite right now in Canada, and you see across the provinces that there is a movement towards poverty strategies at the provincial level. I think there is an opportunity for some federal leadership to try to bring the various players to the table and come up with some common goals. We need a common definition of that and the indicators that support it. There's a big measurement piece that I think the federal government could very easily lead on.
Second, there are the investments in those key areas that we've all described, such as early childhood education, child care, housing, and making sure that we're actually reinforcing and enforcing our employment standards. Finally, we need to make sure that we're delivering on those goals.
The question was raised about how we rally with the existing funding models. If we start thinking in terms of performance agreements around those goals, there is an appetite, and it already occurs at the sub-provincial level. I think there has to be some firmness behind that, but once we have some agreed upon goals, I would think that the performance agreements that relate to those are.... There would be some level of willingness as long as we're willing to stand firm.
