I am happy to read the Minister of Sports comments reflecting his vision for sports going forward. I was particularly pleased with his views on the "athletes subvention program" and the need to revisit the policy from what I understood, to be more athlete friendly so to speak. I can attest to the athletes constant concerns about subvention, the fear that they will be without cause removed from the program, others who are performing to an Olympic or Elite developmental level, not considered while continuing to sacrifice for the sake of representing their country. I hope at some point in the near future to meet Minister Pintard to present to him a document which he might not be aware of on performance criteria for subvention for track and field athletes. It was requested by an official and submitted to the Ministry.
