I have to say that the presentations have been absolutely inspiring and very well done.
I have questions for everybody, but I think I'll start with you, Mr. Cook.
One of the reports from your institute, which I read with a lot of interest, talks about alignment of governments and how important it is to have our federal, provincial, municipal, and territorial governments aligned in a poverty reduction strategy.
Given the fact that our minister's mandate letter is to come up with a national poverty reduction strategy, and given the fact that I continually am frustrated by people coming into my office with housing issues, where I have to say that's provincial or what have you, and federal money can go for housing but then it goes into the provinces and they decide, can you just give us some thoughts on this? Can you elaborate—maybe we can go down the table a bit here, just with your thoughts—on how important alignment is between the governments and what you see and what you would correct? Are there any thoughts on that?
