There's a lot of education to be done. I know in my community of Rivière-des-Mille-Îles there are groups and citizens who are trying to educate consumers about food waste and about how to eliminate or reduce their food waste. These are certainly really very valuable initiatives.
I just want to move to something you mentioned in your presentation concerning the treatment of waste water. We know that the federal government proposed a new pan-Canadian strategy on the management of waste water. This is particularly controversial among municipalities because, as you know, there were new rules put into place, that would essentially obligate municipalities to upgrade their infrastructure without actually having any funding attached to these new roles. I heard from many municipalities and communities in my region that were upset about this measure. Could you maybe give the committee a general policy recommendation on what part the federal government should play in funding waste treatment plants and wastewater treatment plants?
