It's a tough task to reduce 87 recommendations to three, but I can definitely take on the challenge. The first top priority would be to ensure that vulnerable populations and marginalized and racialized communities, especially indigenous communities, are adequately protected from toxic substances and pollution so those recommendations that pertain to vulnerable populations are critical. Very related to that is recognizing Canadians' right to a healthy environment within CEPA, which would be the first time that a federal legislation would have a recognition of that right. Those two go hand in hand. Protecting vulnerable populations and recognizing the right to a healthy environment are two sides of the same coin.
The second priority is around how we risk-assess chemicals. We have a "one chemical at a time" approach, and we have tens of thousands of chemicals on the market. We need to be smarter. We need to go where the best practices are globally in looking at classes of chemicals, cumulative effects, and ensuring that we're addressing exposures in a holistic way as opposed to an individualistic way.
The third one would be around enforcement. We should ensure that we have civil enforcement mechanisms that enable the public to participate in decision-making and enforcement.
