I think it's important to note, as you did, Mr. Watson, that SARAC did not make any significant recommendations to change the component of the act that requires that critical habitat be identified for each individual species.
I think it's hard to move forward in an ecosystem-based approach that ensures that all species will be adequately protected if we don't know what their basic habitat needs are. But there is room, again, in the action planning stage of the Species at Risk Act to then say, okay, I live in southern Ontario, or the Carolinian range; let's put it all together, and then when we develop our action plan, we can look at what's the most cost-effective way to move forward that captures protecting the ecosystems upon which these species depend and ensures that their individual habitat needs are met.
