It's interesting because you're really pointing at one of the big challenges of the NCC in terms of acting locally with a national mandate. You're talking about these communities—and I'm assuming you're talking about the municipalities here—and we have a national mandate. So when you look at the plan for Canada's capital....
We have a plan. We've had several plans for Canada's capital. I think it's still a long process, but it has to be a long process because you have to consult, you have to get all the great minds thinking, involving Canadians. This is what we're going to try do even better this time: reach out to Canadians to get their input on how they would like to see their capital. Part of our mandate is to inspire pride. It's not an easy thing to do. So we have to really engage them. We have to find ways to connect with them so that they know about their plan for Canada's capital, and that you, members of Parliament, really know about this tool and believe in it.
Having said that, we deal with the municipal component on a regular basis. There won't be any surprise through this plan. We coordinate it. This is one of the things that's achieved by the meeting of the mayors and me. We've started integrating our planning processes, because sometimes we consult the same people on the ground. For example, the City of Ottawa right now is redoing its operational plan. They have agreed not to touch the greenbelt until we're finished our greenbelt master plan. So we're going to finish our greenbelt master plan, and then it's going to feed into their operational plan at the next round. We are now trying to really integrate our planning processes so we can build on each other's.
So the plan for Canada's capital is not going to be a surprise to the local municipalities. Our big challenge, in my opinion, is going to be to get Canadians to really see this capital as their capital and be so proud and so engaged in it. You'll hear more about this, I can promise you.
