It would be a great loss if there wasn't a larger body with some representational role. I think it's a false dichotomy to say it's absolutely either-or. It could be a kind of hybrid model. But that takes you into the range of 20 to 25 people, as I suggest. As Munir Sheikh and previous chief statisticians have pointed out, there's a large array of committees that give advice to Statistics Canada, including provincial-territorial statistical advisory committees.
So this body, though, didn't bring an institutional perspective. It wasn't a particular organization. We were encouraged as individual members to leave our institutional identity at the door and come into the room and ask the question: what's in the best interest of the national statistical system?
It would be helpful, for example, to have somebody from the north, from one of the three territories—or maybe more than one.
