Environment committee  Yes. Just to end, with the next stage of this reintroduction, once you actually get into Okanagan Lake, there are estimates that there is enough for about 4 million returning salmon. In economic terms, that's quite significant.

Environment committee  I can do that. With regard to how the national conservation plan will complement or enhance conservation, I think I'll have to end by saying that first nation involvement at national regional community levels is important. Having not only first nations participating but also regional and provincial governments in conjunction with federal initiatives is very important because conservation will not succeed without these.

Environment committee  Good morning, everyone. I'm here on behalf of the Assembly of First Nations. One of the questions we were looking at is how the national conservation plan can complement or enhance habitat conservation. There were previous submissions by the AFN on the national conservation plan, which focused on the relationship between conservation, first nations, traditional knowledge, and customary and sustainable use of biological resources.
