Yes, just to finish your thoughts about the role of the federal government, I think the other thing that it does is set a way for the federal government to act. It doesn't take away the authority of individual departments within their areas, but it means that someone is asking the questions and someone is trying to move things along on a schedule.
When we look at the United States and where they're at, my own observation would be that we have a better level of coordination between levels of government. We're smaller. We work better together generally. We also, I think, have a much stronger municipal system of ability to manage. Some of the best of the United States...it's like many things. New York City did a marvellous job responding to 9/11. The same event in another city could have been a major catastrophe, bigger than it was. New Orleans was noted as having a particularly spotty record, both municipal and state--a certain lack of coordination between the two and with the federal government. I've been down there several times, and there are still major issues.
So the lesson out of it is that no one level of government can do this. It is about relationships. It's about operating in a seamless manner. And this bill really says here's how the federal government will do that. We are committed to that, and we've certainly learned those lessons in events here in Canada too.
