Putting that aside, obviously the Kelowna accord was very serious. Whether we call it an accord or an agreement, Kelowna was a historic coming together of first nations, provincial governments, territorial governments, and the federal government. Perhaps what we should call it is a historic opportunity that's been lost.
In terms of having fun, at that last meeting there was a reference by Mr. Fitzpatrick, which has now been explained, about Marxist paradise. At that time, we assumed it was a reference to reserves and the situation there, but it was a reference to the government. It was in several newspapers. He said, “I'm frustrated that the government is not doing a better job of improving their lives”. It's a rare occurrence, but I concur. This government is not doing enough, whether it's tearing up the Kelowna accord or agreement, however we'd like to call it.
It was very encouraging that you said that if the opportunity availed itself, you'd like to spend the rest of your career in this particular department.
Three years ago, there was a committee struck to deal with mould in housing. We had report after report. Earlier you said that within months you'd like to come back before the committee. Looking at our timelines, that opportunity would most likely rise in October.
Will you have an action plan dealing with this particular problem at that time? Will you be able to present us with very concrete timelines on how we'll finally deal with the problem of mould in the housing on the reserves?
