Well, certainly I would recommend that this process be as open and as inclusive and as accessible as possible. If that means taking this committee out on the road to hear directly from affected first nations, environmental groups, and others who would like to see a rigorous environmental assessment process or who may have some interesting stories or recommendations to make, I think that would be beneficial, so as to hear directly from all the interested stakeholders and not just the few of us who can make it to Ottawa from time to time.
