Thank you for coming out today.
You spoke quite a bit about potential advances that could be made by harmonizing or adding equivalency or substitution processes in the EA process. Earlier in our proceedings we heard testimony that this perhaps is not a desirable route, because the federal government is best positioned to look at issues that are within its jurisdiction and vice-versa.
Could you speak to the validity of that statement, from your experience? If there are issues involved there, how could we address them if we were looking at substitution or equivalency?
