Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to our witnesses. I appreciate your comments.

I will begin with Mr. Kent.

We heard from Mr. Andrew Campbell of Parks Canada a week ago that, and I quote, “ecological integrity will continue to be the first priority as long as that's our legislative base”.

Could you comment on “as long as that's our legislative base”? We're hearing from stakeholders that there's concern about slippage regarding ecological integrity, and I would like to know what recommendation you would make to this committee regarding ecological integrity, and for what parks.
