On the subject of coordination, not just with the provinces but interdepartmentally, if I'm talking about new technologies, and it happens to be an environmental technology, and I want this commercialized, is Industry Canada taking the lead? Is Environment taking the lead? Is Natural Resources taking the lead? It seems that there may be some confusion as to who actually leads, disregarding the fact that science and technology falls under us. Quite often, if I'm applying for a particular program, I may have some confusion in dealing with one department versus the other. Is there a magic formula? Is there one department that speaks for all?
