Mr. Chairman, I would certainly consider it and I hope the next time around, we can work out an arrangement with Statistics Canada to do it. Having said that though, Statistics Canada has been pretty adamant that they want to collect the data in a consistent way right across the country. They would not want each jurisdiction doing it on its own. It is going to take a bit of persuasion to get them to get off their present system.
I suspect we are going to find that this last census, which was managed by a person from outside of the Territories, where Stats Canada set the salary level for people who did the surveys and it was very low. They had a lot of trouble collecting information. I was speaking to one of the people this morning who dropped into my office to talk to me about it. It was just full of problems when they did it.
Maybe there is some willingness to look at the North differently, particularly aboriginal communities, than they do in the rest of Canada. I would like to work with Statistics Canada to do that, not fight with them, if we can do it. Thank you.
