I am not asking you to comment on this matter, but the fact that it takes so much time may be intentional. Perhaps we should be asking how much money goes back to the Government of Canada compared to what is paid out. We may be in for a surprise. Five per cent of your organizations have not received an answer in six months, regardless of the amount of money requested, whether it be 2, 3, 10, 15 or 20 million dollars. This means that this money will at one point be sent to them and all of it will have to be returned. You are not able to provide the services, even with the best will in the world, because someone, somewhere, is putting obstacles in your way.
