I guess I was frustrated by a lack of access to cabinet on a regular basis and to the Prime Minister on a regular basis. When a national science advisor is to be effective, you have to have that regular interaction. For example, for science to be effective there should be a science advisor at the cabinet table in order to give sciences a voice to their considerations. I think that's quite crucial.
With regard to your comments about the CLS, as you know, I'm the chairman of the board of the CLS. I've just finished a nine-year term as chairman of the board. I absolutely agree with you that the CLS is delighted that the government has provided $10 million over two years of additional funding. Unfortunately it doesn't solve the longer-term problem, as you know. I'm sure the universities are very happy about the indirect costs and the increase there. There are many things that are very positive. It's important to keep your eye on the overall ball so that we don't forget about improving the whole system. That's the difficult thing.
