The reason I ask it that way is that we just went through a study about the flood response in the Fraser Valley and we saw a bunch of volunteers use their own boats and their own gas to really help fix what the response was. What actually really happened was a volunteer effort in essence. They weren't compensated or anything else.
Getting back to my question, though, when we asked the Department of Fisheries and Oceans whose responsibility it was, they kind of shrugged their shoulders and said, “Well, we issued a bunch of permits.” That's all they did. It was really just partially getting out of the way of the people who actually did the work.
If the responsibility belongs to the federal government, I guess I'm a little bit alarmed based on the questions my colleague Mr. Arnold asked you. If you haven't been compensated for some of your cleanup efforts, that kind of begs the question of whether there is a plan in the first place. It causes some doubt around whether there is a plan or not, because I would have assumed that you would have been part of that response plan in your area. If there was a container spill, I thought you would have been consulted and told, “Hey, we want you to be part of this program.”
Are you aware of whether there's any plan like that in place in your community?
