Sometimes we don't emphasize it enough that, as part of Parks Canada's portfolio, it's not just parks and marine conservation areas but also national historic sites. It's very important, as we look at Canada's 150th, how we protect heritage sites. I have learned first-hand that when it comes to, for example, the Rideau Canal or the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa, we can be doing more to protect very important parts of our cultural heritage. Certainly more work could be done in this area. I hope your committee might consider working on it.
