Thanks for that.
I would invite further written comments. Since you have extensive written comments on the MPA aspect, if you'd like to make further written comments on the NMCA aspect, we would welcome that. I mentioned that to all of our other witnesses, and it applies to those who may be reading the transcript as well.
To go to the issue of legislative tools that make up what I call the wardrobe of federal mechanisms that enable protection, we have a whole series of them that are related to marine protection and even more of them for land. I think one of the motivating factors behind this study was an evaluation of the state of the wardrobe. I think the reason Mr. O'Carroll and other witnesses are correct in saying that we have to adopt a consultative approach is that we know there will be different circumstances in different parts of the country. Ms. Nowlan, with respect, it is very difficult to do things very quickly and all at once, because you're dealing with a whole bunch of different wardrobe items.
I wonder if our witnesses could comment on whether they feel we have the wardrobe items or the legal tools in the box that are necessary to achieve the kind of large-scale conservation advances that we want to achieve, or do we need some different approaches? We're in a kind of contemplative mode of looking at whether we have all the tools we need and whether we need to be inventing different ones.
