To date, in terms of planning, VANOC has been peerless. It has managed to develop an official languages reflex. Currently we're seeing a possible slide between planning and actual implementation operations. We have some concerns in certain areas: health, safety and services for athletes and families.
VANOC is a very well managed organization, and Canadian citizens can be very proud of that. However, the extensive use of private sector contractors and subcontractors is a major concern. When the games begin, will those contractors and subcontractors be able to provide the services? On that day, citizens won't be able to tell the difference between a VANOC employee and one from a private company. So we have some concerns, but we're working with these people virtually every day to ensure that everything goes well. These games belong to all Canadians. We didn't want to be just a watchdog, but rather a partner in the success of those games.
