Mrs. Micheline Leduc (Director, Harbour Operations and Engineering, Department of Fisheries and Oceans) at the Fisheries and Oceans Committee

I'd prefer to go back into our historical records to provide you with that information, but dredging is certainly part of our mandate. It's providing access to our harbours, so it's fundamental. We are doing maintenance.

Dredging is a priority. Capital dredging falls into the category of expanding our harbours, but maintenance dredging certainly is a priority for us, and it's usually contained in our expenditure line.
