Thank you very much.
I thank all of the witnesses and extend a particular welcome to Ms. Ballantyne.
I note that your organization is based in my riding of Ottawa West—Nepean, so welcome to the committee. My question is for you, Ms. Ballantyne. I know that you have talked about a policy framework, and suggested that now is the time to be laying the foundational building blocks. I also noted that you recognize that a lot of this is a provincial jurisdiction and that it can take a decade to be able to negotiate a truly universal system.
There was a framework, the Dryden framework, which was dismantled by the previous government. It had the agreement of the provinces.
How many of these foundational blocks can we draw from that framework? What, in your opinion, are some of the lessons we might be able to learn from that? Do we need to start from scratch, or can we go back to the provinces with something based somewhat on that?
