We have, to a degree. I wasn't familiar with the waiting period. I hope that's not the case.
I was with Minister Philpott when that announcement was made in Kuujjuaq on the $9 million. We've been working on putting proposals together. I know there have been some back and forth challenges, and there's a lack of clarity in the requirements of the proposal.
That being said, we need to look at more of a needs-based approach, where if there are programs in place that we can enhance, then it should streamline the proposal process.
If there's one recommendation out of the many that I'm sure you will put forward, I hope it is a way to streamline the funding process so we can utilize the funds that are provided. There are additional monies coming from Health Canada over the next few years, as well, for core funding.
When we're talking about specific proposal-based funding, I hope there's a way to streamline that process to take more of a needs-based approach to it.
