That is a very important question.
I've noticed in the last ten years, and especially in the last seven or eight years, that there's a great deal more interest now amongst provincial politicians, provincial leaders. For example, the new wall at Queen's Park in Toronto is an example of the legislature doing something they had never done before, and that is to hold a great ceremony. I went to the ceremony with the minister of culture that day and I was astounded at the audience. It was enormous. We were all surprised. So there is a great deal more interest amongst our young people and amongst the public in general.
Secondly, I think Canadians are so un-warlike, and our military traditions have only been during some great crisis such as the crisis with Nazi Germany, that we're not very much interested in the army. I don't think the Canadian army has ever been seen as a really great career. Now I think that may be changing, but the military in Canada has been very small, usually housed up in Petawawa or somewhere, and I don't think we have much of a military culture. As mentioned, now that we are so involved in Afghanistan I think we're becoming more interested in why we are there, what it has to do with citizenship, who we are, and what this is all about. I think there's a great interest. Is this a good thing? Why are we over in this foreign country losing our young people? I think there's a great deal more interest now.
I hope that's a reasonable answer.
