Yes, there is that. It's not always a question of money, but there's a money issue in television. So Radio-Canada will submit a plan to us, and I'm convinced that plan will require us to pay it additional money.
If the government decides to give Radio-Canada money to achieve its desire to be more present in the regions, it can grant it targeted funding and ensure that that funding is spent for that and not for anything else.
Mr. Lauzon, when you work at Canadian Heritage, you have to be more thorough. When I say Canadian Heritage, I mean the entire portfolio, and that includes culture, official languages and support for the status of women.
We work with programs and have direct clienteles, not like others. When I was at Social Development, in negotiations, there was a community party, but most negotiations were conducted with the provinces, and they had ultimate responsibility for making things work.
When you work directly with clients, you make sure you exercise good financial control. That's very important. I must say we usually administer ourselves with less than 11 percent in all our programs and that we make audit requests to ourselves in order to be sure that we're headed in the right direction. We don't have enough money to afford to waste it. That also applies to the education agreements and the community agreements. In education, there's the audit of the provinces. We make sure, at the provincial level, that the money goes where it's supposed to go.
I know we want tighter standards, but, when it comes to an area of exclusive provincial jurisdiction, you have to convince the provinces that that's the way to do it. That's what's being done now, and the provinces know it.
