Thank you, Madam Chair.
Looking at the motion, I understand where Mr. Martin is trying to go here. Obviously, to have a very accurate opinion or assessment, we would need to peel back the federal layers, the provincial layers, and the municipal layers to really have a good understanding.
I know that he speaks specifically here about the Government of Canada, but obviously, with provincial transfers... We may have poverty solved before we get the final answer on where these costs are. If there are specific areas that Mr. Martin feels passionate about and wants to know about, as part of our final suggestions with a report, that might be more helpful as a specific piece of it, whether it's the guaranteed income supplement, or housing, or something specific and identifiable that the government staff might be able to get back to us on in a timely manner.
This looks like a lifetime project here, so I think we should take that under consideration.
