Thank you. That's very enlightening.
As you said, a number of stakeholders involved in biodiversity and water protection work in silos. The federal government should really take the lead in trying to dismantle this approach.
I have a question for Mr. O'Connor.
You spoke about courage and the importance of not hiding behind slogans that would slash our programs, our climate measures and our children's future. I couldn't agree more. Yes, I have the courage to work so that our children have a future.
You spoke about zebra mussels. I want to hear about solutions. These mussels are found all over the Great Lakes.
