Thank you, Chair.
I want to pick up on a number of comments that were made earlier.
Ms. Dubois, you mentioned the need to have long-term, ongoing funding for some of the work of removing vessels.
Ms. Bowman, you mentioned, as part of your recommendations, changes that you'd like to see on the fees for boats.
One thing the federal government has proposed is the creation of a vessel remediation fund, whereby when boat owners register their vessels, they would be subject to a small fee that would go into this fund. It would in turn, over time, provide a sustainable source of funding to do this type of work.
First Ms. Dubois and then Ms. Bowman, I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you think this is the right approach to be able to ensure that there is that type of ongoing funding to do this work.
