There is variation across the country. We are a federation. Ultimately, provinces and territories have made different decisions about how to invest in their MAID programs and how some of the coal face regulation operates.
I don't think variability is necessarily a problem, because ultimately it's up to the provinces to decide how to deliver MAID. Depending on the local context, different mechanisms of regulation can be more appropriate. Some provinces have very few cases of MAID. The very fact that there's variability should not be cause for concern on its own.
