Mr. Shearman, we have to put a strategy in place and do things differently. We have to take the environment into account as well as quality of life. Do we not need to reinvent the way government works, whatever the operative strategy? The government that is the closest to the people is always the municipal government. Funding has to be taken into account as well as the Constitution, because the municipalities are creatures of the provinces, under the Constitution.
How does the CAA see that situation? Your organization has a vast experience of the country and has a strong relation with its affiliated organizations. We are all in agreement on public transit. The first thing we should do to set up a national strategy should be to reinvent the way in which the Canadian government works, in particular with cities, don't you think?
