Thank you.
Thank you all for your presentations this morning.
I have two quick questions and then I'm going to try to cede my time to Mr. Sopuck. On the first one I just want to clear things up for myself and maybe others. It does discuss the prescriptive nature of the legislation currently, and also concerning the open range of species in Canada that may just exist over the Canadian-U.S. border, in particular.
Does the department, under the current legislation, have the leeway to decide whether to intervene if a species is at risk in Canada but is plentiful just over the border in the United States? Is that currently the leeway you have in the act, or is that something we should consider as a recommendation for part of this review?
