From this side of the table, I want to reflect what we have heard, either implied or stated directly: that the state and quality of the consultation is something that you really do need to be concerned about.
It's fairly common for people who get an adverse outcome to say that the process wasn't good, but at the same time, there's a whole school of thought around fair process. I really have to impress upon you the need to go back, right down to the field level, and ensure that the people who are exchanging with the local community really have their act together on this one.
We heard from Parks Canada, which has, to be honest with you, a much better reputation in this regard than DFO. For the purpose of public confidence and fair process, it has to be something that really needs attention, and I dare say, from what I've heard, more on the east coast than the west coast.
You said that this bill will give you authority to partner more effectively. Can you expand on that a little bit?
