I could, and to be honest with you, that's where I differ a little from some of my colleagues, especially the ones in the environmental law areas. I know Josh Ginsberg personally. We've served on the Friends of Temagami board together. I think perhaps they are focusing a bit too narrowly on the wording of defining navigable waters as likely to be navigated by vessels. I think saying that navigable waters are waters that currently are or likely to be, really, includes just about anything that we might want to navigate, because in my view it will include what was done in the past whether it was by first nations or people like me who are recreational paddlers.
