One thing strikes us, specifically: our expertise does not seem to have been taken into account. We have 10 years' experience, after all. When we started, I think we received $20,000 in funding in the first year. That was very little. We had to prove that we were capable of doing the job and when we proved it, we got more money. That seems to me to make sense. I am not a businessperson, but it seems logical to me. Now we have built our capacity. We have a network in the province. We have 700 members in 81 member organizations, but our funding has been cut off. We have proved our capacity, but it unfortunately does not seem to have been taken into consideration when projects were evaluated.
