I'm sure they could have, Mr. Arnold. We looked at as much as we could within the confines of our Senate committee. We spoke with experts, people with experience in this area, and we gave it our own consideration with whatever experience we brought to the table, and I'll say I have considerable experience.
On the face of it, this makes sense. It's done successfully in other areas. It not only allows a system that permits a proponent to do what they want to do within the confines of the law—with environmental assessment and all of that—but it also enhances areas that are supported by first nations groups, wetlands conservation groups and environmental protection groups. We have a lot of them, and we should have a lot of them. This just facilitates it to a greater degree. Right now it's just the proponent.
