Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for joining us today.
I've often wondered about this. Provinces like Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland are surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and therefore have unlimited access to water, except it's salt water. Have either of your provincial governments ever studied the possibility of desalination facilities to acquire drinking water and other uses of water from the ocean so that changes in river flows in any one year don't make that much difference?
Is that something that has ever been studied in any great depth?
