This sounds slightly different from what I understand to be the situation in British Columbia, where, in a river, the riverbed is provincial Crown jurisdiction. That would be a significant difference, again, between the east coast and the west coast. I hope we can get that clarified.
Regarding the vessel remediation fund, it's been proposed that there be a levy of a $10 flat fee applied to pleasure craft, and a fee based on vessel size for commercial vessels. That $10 fee would be every five years.
Would that fee cover the cost of the removal or remediation of a vessel?
