If I may provide a very recent example, the J.D. Irving company was found to be guilty of destroying a large nesting area for herons in the Atlantic region, where it was operating. The court did direct payment to the environmental damages fund so that Bird Studies Canada could do some specific research.
Most of the time, with the environmental damages fund, the courts are indicating where they want the resources to be spent, and they are directing it to where the harm occurred. They often aren't quite as prescriptive as they were in the Irving case, where they indicated the money should go for research, but most are indicating there be some general restoration of the damage related to the harm. That's why, across the country, we have databases that give us ready access to the groups who can do that restoration work.
