Thank you.
I did raise the issue of the funding to be provided to for-profit groups, as well as for non-profit groups. We see it as an unfair competition. For-profit groups will be able to figure in recovering the costs that they have to put into their presentation, when they go forward to look for these funds, limited though they may be.
Not-for-profit groups are short of women power right from the beginning, they are short of time, and they are short of financial resources to enable them to compete in the same way that any for-profit group can. You're asking apples to compete with very beautiful, ripe oranges. It's not an even playing field; it's not a level playing field.
Furthermore, with the changes in the program as described to us—I have not looked at the new criteria, and certainly I shall look at the new guidelines, as recommended by the member who spoke about this—we still understand that if we are not getting funding for advocacy or work that will lead advocacy, then what is the purpose of the funding? There is no point even applying for it, unless you are willing to lie through your teeth.
