Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Certainly, Mr. Volpe, you've hit upon the very crux of the issue. At this stage, this government has been very clear that we're not going to interfere in provincial jurisdiction and we would have to reach an agreement with the provinces in regulating newspapers and advertising within their travel agencies. Indeed, the federal government at this stage can regulate radio and TV ads, as well as airlines generally, but it will take the cooperation of the different provinces.
The one topic you continue to ignore, Mr. Volpe, and I continue to bring up is the issue of web-based advertising and making sure there's a clear and even playing field for the parties that are involved. Web-based advertising, of course, is under the jurisdiction of the country the web server is actually based in. So we have three different levels, and of course it will be impossible to regulate the web base.
Quite frankly, Mr. Volpe, it sounds as though you have more issues than just whether the consultations are ongoing. I would suggest that you just ask for a letter from the minister with the specific things that you want to know.
