It's an interesting point that you bring up, but I think it is important that we don't lose sight of the fact that under international human rights obligations all levels of government are responsible for poverty. Every level of government is responsible for the right to housing, the right to food, the right to life, as Bonnie points out, that people aren't living on the streets a block from Parliament. It's all levels of government that are responsible here. There is a role for provincial, territorial, and local governments to play.
We can't lose sight of the fact that the federal government has an important voice here. That's one of the reasons we're excited about the court challenges program, because it gives us the ability to speak to systemic issues. It gives us the ability to use the charter to say there is systemic discrimination against people living in poverty and people who are homeless. It really pertains to all levels of government.
