Mr. Sandford, I'm going to come back to you because you have a wealth of experience. Earlier, I was telling you that Canada always projects a kind of image on the international scene, but when you live here, you see things differently.
Mr. Madramootoo mentioned it earlier. Canada's trademark is that it has a lot of fresh water reserves. Quebec has a million lakes. Food is safe. Technologies are modern. Opportunities abound.
We have a lot of water, but its quality sometimes leaves something to be desired, especially in indigenous communities. Think of the regions in northern Alberta, where water is polluted by the oil sands, the Ottawa River, which is threatened by nuclear waste, and the indigenous communities that are located just a few kilometres away from Edmonton and have no clean drinking water.
Don't you think that Canada has some serious work to do before holding itself up as an example?
