I think that in coming up with solutions, part of what I've tried to do—and as the committee goes on with its work, you'll start to think I sound like a broken record—if we embed a certain number of key principles across the whole body of Canadian environmental law, then we'll achieve a degree of consistency. That is what I think you're striving for, and I think we should look at the question of how we can achieve the right to a healthy environment in a way that crosses all those boundaries without having to necessarily amend every one of those laws. That's something I'm certainly happy to have conversations about and look into.
