Thank you so much.
Mr. Masse, as a city councillor and then as a member of Parliament, you've been very involved in trying to protect and preserve natural areas. You mentioned to Ms. Thompson that legislation is really important and potentially the only way to permanently protect this area. You've spoken about how the city once had to purchase a provincial park to prevent it from being developed.
Could you just expand on this for the committee and tell us a little bit about how that informed your understanding of the need to ensure that legislation was passed to make Ojibway a national park?
