Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. MacIsaac.
There will probably always be invasive species, and that is why it is so important to have early detection and intervention capacities, as you mentioned in your introduction. Invasive species often come from abroad or from the continent, through the St. Lawrence Seaway or other navigable routes, through the gulf, or by way of surface transport. The bait comes in numerous ways.
Where should we begin in order to improve our early detection and intervention capacity? Are current efforts sufficient to reach that goal?
