I think our general view is quite clear in the report we published last July. In it, we refer to the cuts affecting Canada as a whole.
We're certainly very concerned about an erosion of scientific expertise and of monitoring capability.
If we take those concerns and put them specifically in the concept of urban conservation, I think we need to recognize we're going to be dealing with extremely complex environments. We're dealing with environments that have already been degraded. We need to understand the implications of that, and we need to understand that improvements are going to be complex as well.
I remember when we were in the Rouge last summer. We were out in a natural area listening to a presentation about how they were restoring the natural vegetation, the plants and the trees and so forth, which are very interesting things to replant. Then I turned around and I looked at the new townhouse development being built right behind us. You sort of say, “Okay, this is going to be a very complicated business.” It's not that it can't be done, but it's going to take a much more complex kind of monitoring and more sophisticated science than a far northern area, which is much more coherent.
It's a bigger challenge, scientifically. The game has to be stepped up, frankly.
