I understand that, but Parks Canada is always talking about working with local communities and how what goes on outside the park affects what happens inside the park, and vice-versa. Yet the funding seems to stop at the park boundary. But that's something for folks like us to work on.
My second question regards litigation that is possible under the Species at Risk Act. In terms of what's happening in the U.S., with whole communities shutting down because of the draconian implementation of their endangered species act—I'm thinking of irrigation in California, the spotted owl issue in Oregon--carried to a logical or illogical conclusion, would the shutting down of whole communities be possible under this act were things to carry in that particular direction?
To be really simple, can the spotted owl thing happen in Canada?
