I want to emphasize that these new tools of federal-provincial cooperation were put in at the request of the provinces. In 2009, the Canadian committee of ministers of the environment endorsed a report in which it recommended that jurisdictions add additional tools for cooperation.
We will never be in a situation where the federal government will say to a province, “We want you to do this.” We are not dictating it. The way it will work is that it will always be up to the province to say, “Look, we think we could do this. We're already doing a process, so we're not asking to do something different.”
They're already engaged in looking at that line, so they could come forward and say, “Rather than both of us being there and trying to work together, why don't we just do it?”
