Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you all for being here.
My question is in regard to the ecological gifts program, and specifically around the change currently proposed that the Minister of Environment and Climate Change must approve the recipient. If I'm reading this correctly, the act is to amend the requirement that municipalities and municipal public bodies can perform this function on behalf of the government.
Am I understanding that correctly, and if so, what is this process? How do the municipalities...? Do they request this or do they automatically receive this ability? What does this change look like in practice?
