Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to welcome the witnesses.
Mr. Jaques, I'd like to begin by asking you a few questions about the Water Security Agency.
You said earlier that priorities had to be determined from among the various users. I'd also like to return to what your colleagues said before.
Many users are in the agricultural, industrial and mining sectors. It's also clear that what the future holds in store for us includes droughts, precipitation and other disturbances caused by climate change. We expect disputes between users to become more frequent.
How do you think the Canada Water Agency will be able to contribute to this dialogue?
Earlier on, Mr. Donnelly mentioned that the parties could be brought together for discussions and preparations. As for Saskatchewan and the role of your agency there, I'd like to know if you are planning these sorts of discussions.
