Your question is very pertinent.
The majority of the issues involve a number of players, as is also often the case for the solutions. One of the things I talked about was land development. There are a lot of concerns about this in the municipal world. It is also a concern shared by farmers. Subsoil drainage is perhaps their main asset in terms of the productivity of their crops. Clearly, the management of waterways and agricultural land is a concern for municipalities and regions, for provincial authorities, and even for federal regulations.
The techniques are often known, but it is becoming difficult to really coordinate the measures and even to make sure that the technical, financial and regulatory frameworks are consistent.
It is not for me, as a scientist, to comment on the federal government's positions. However, I can say that there are certainly major factors of infrastructure and sustainable investments with land and waterway management, for example.
In addition, federal environmental regulations are affected in these projects. It is important that the regulations put limits on problematic situations, but also that they do not prevent us from innovating and trying new approaches, for waterway management, for example.
