I consulted with members of COSEWIC.
Basically, what happened is that I established a SARA parliamentary working group two and a half years ago. That working group met and made some recommendations. Then, in March, prior to being notified that I might be appearing before this committee, I drafted this document. I circulated it to the members of the working group on COSEWIC. Then we discussed it in full during our species assessment meeting in St. Andrews during the last week of April.
So it's a product of all of those things.
