The general concern about Statistics Canada is being able to get data in a timely fashion. When you look at some of their publications on energy use, for example, the data is two and three years out of date. It is very difficult, when you have that kind of a lag, to understand exactly what's going on in a rapidly changing marketplace. Some marketplaces aren't that rapidly changing, but often prices are. That's affecting use as well.
The first thing would be to step up the collection of the data and the ability to analyze it more rapidly and create energy information.
This goes back to what you need improved in the energy information system. You need a group of people who combine the engineering, technical, economic, social, and policy priorities in a sense, and really good communication skills, quite frankly. If you have everything on a spreadsheet, you could say the information is available. I believe you have the data available, but you don't really have information that can be used by people. You need all these skill sets coming together to direct projects, priorities, and to say If we're going to spend public money, here are the things we need to do. That needs to be built into the system, in addition to all the technical work that's going on today.
