Thank you, Madam Chair. I think I just have one question. I think we’ve cleared up everything, as far as I’m concerned, and I just want to say I think I just have one question. It speaks more to the philosophy. I think the Minister’s heard enough from me about my concerns on consumer affairs and whatnot. I’d kind of like to bottle it up and maybe I’ll call it one, hopefully, clear ask, which is: What can the Minister do about the somewhat public anonymity that hides behind consumer affairs?
I’m not suggesting they’re not trying to reach out there, but I think there’s a general perception from the public that they don’t exist. I guess if I could qualify that it may not be feasible to create a storefront objective, and I want to be clear, that’s not what I’m asking, but they don’t seem to have a prominent public face, so when we do have problems with the Bell cell phones, for example, prices, or we have gas price issues, or other types of issues, the public feels there’s nowhere to go, nowhere to complain, and they end up on our desks, as MLAs, to ask what do we do, and they feel this relentless sense of exhaustion and it just seems to poke away.
If I can get some insight from the Minister as to what he can do under his stewardship of this department to help bring up the profile of consumer affairs, and what they can do and how they’re seen and perceived in the public, that would be very helpful. I think that’s really the only area of concern I have as far as MACA is concerned.
