Thank you for the question, Mr. Ali.
I do appreciate those comments. Water is critical. It was critical to me in my early development, 30 years ago, and it's become even more so now as we've seen the pressures mounting on water.
The Canada water agency is very needed. It can play an important function in bringing provinces and territories together to focus on the challenges that lie ahead, which are enormous. The science and the monitoring that it can bring attention to are critical. I know the agency has reached out to our government and is looking for partnerships and ways that our governments can work together, which I think is critically important.
If there are one or two things that I could stress—one I already did in my presentation in terms of looking at further investments, and I think those investments are absolutely needed—I would encourage Canada to consider a broader view of the impacts on water or focus on addressing water. Drinking water is critically important to all Canadians and to the Canadian economy, but so are the impacts from drought, floods and wildfires, and they need to be addressed.
That, I believe, will take an all-of-government approach from multiple ministries to engage in how that is addressed. Further investment and a slightly broader agenda are needed, as we have taken in the province.
Maybe I'll ask ADM Mack if there's anything else I've missed.
