Thank you for your comment on the Greenbelt. Like many, we feel that it's important for the federal government to ensure not only the environmental integrity of the Rouge national park, but also the environmental integrity of protected lands in Ontario. The decrease of $5 million is actually a transfer to CIRNAC related to the indigenous agenda. As such, it falls under the transfer payment vote and not under the agency's operating vote; in other words, it has no bearing on the agency's capacity to deliver high-quality impact assessments.
I totally agree with you. If there was ever a time when we needed a strong, robust, independent Impact Assessment Agency, it's now. We fought for this. In fact, we're still fighting in the Supreme Court, unfortunately, against a number of provinces that don't want to have truly meaningful and impactful impact assessments that would include indigenous people and that would include looking at the impacts of climate change on projects that are being proposed. We disagree with those views, which is why we're fighting all the way to the Supreme Court to be able to have a robust system in Canada.
