Provincially, we held them routinely, annually, and it was very difficult at times to get OCIPEP, now Public Safety Canada, to participate in a meaningful way in those exercises. We always had a provincial representative in our POECs, both from DND and from Public Safety Canada, but for Public Safety Canada, after they closed the training school and after they stopped doing the regular annual exercise format to try to link elected officials into those exercises, we saw that completely collapse nationally.
I believe we need to reinstate that type of activity but recognize that it is still occurring at the provincial and municipal levels.
