I'd like to add to what Doug has said, because he's right, each department has a mandate and we are good at doing certain types of things, but not as good at doing others. Only through that collaboration can we really achieve the full mandate of the government.
Another example mentioned that would be of interest to DND is the Arctic winter warfare training that has taken place for the last two years in February. NRCan does the logistics for DND. We help them get to the place and provide food, board, and everything for them. We rely on the information Environment Canada can provide in terms of ice movement. They send that information to the receiving stations, where we get the data. That's another group, and we work with DND.
It's only by using our best knowledge in the field where we are responsible that we can make that strong team. Trying to put everything together would probably be more chaotic than efficient. It takes time, but in the Arctic collaboration with Environment is a way of living there. Nobody wants to do it alone. They all want to rely on and work with somebody else, because it's so harsh there you don't want to do it alone.
So I'm siding with him. I don't believe one group should be in charge. It's really making sure we know where the best expertise and responsibility lie.
