Mr. Chair, we are absolutely conscious that the effort to address the global environment.... We talk about a global effort, and all the effort begins at home, really. We can't expect to work well with countries abroad if we can't co-operate with our provincial, territorial and municipal governments here.
I referred to the COP before, and maybe I'll use that as an example. We do have, in the case of Quebec, a very large delegation that will be part of Canada's delegation there. There are good channels of co-operation and communication that have opened with all of the provinces and territories that will be participating. Not later than last week, the deputy minister of environment engaged all of his deputy minister colleagues to have that open dialogue to explain our priorities and to ask them what their priorities were. What I would say is that this is an effort that needs to be whole-of-Canada, whole-of-society, and Quebec has a strong role to play in that.
