Through the emergency task force, as well as through consultation with various stakeholders, we are trying to find an appropriate mechanism to define where the standardized training should live and breathe. That is probably the biggest challenge that we are facing, without knowing the specific legalities of whether it is the role of government in putting in place a measure, or whether it is simply something that has to be worked out through industry stakeholders, together with our association, to find where this training money should live and breathe.
What I am presenting today is information for the committee that we have tried to look at mechanisms toward a stipend that would support a training fund that could be rolled out across Canada nationally to at least an awareness level, which would give basic information for all the firefighters across Canada. Where it can live and breathe is the biggest challenge to that.
