Mr. Speaker, at these conferences, as would be expected, there were very different points of view, primarily because the institutes invited people not simply representing one very narrow point of view but all points of view. Obviously there were differences of opinion expressed on the panels and within the workshops. Therefore it would be impossible for anyone to square the circle and to simply do what everybody said.
What we did say very clearly was that we were listening, that we understood the common message, the common theme which is the desire to turn this economy around and give jobs back to the people. We said unequivocally that if we were not prepared to follow the suggestions made in any individual instance, we would indicate why that was the case because we take these consultations very, very seriously.
