Thank you, Chair.
I appreciate that there have been a few questions brought forward around the really important recommendations we brought forward as a committee around marine cargo spills.
As you know, this was a study that I had brought forward as a motion for us to look at in light of the MV Zim Kingston spill, with over 100 containers that got lost at sea. I believe only four were retrieved. Regardless, a very minimal number of them were actually retrieved, leaving the rest of them afloat out in the water.
One of the recommendations that was brought forward was around the Coast Guard working alongside....
One second, while I see if I can get the actual wording. I can't find it.
The point is that it was around the Coast Guard working alongside others to look at the integration of tracking devices on containers so that we can more adequately locate containers in light of a spill.
I recognize this is a reactionary piece to a bigger problem that needs a lot of the preventive mechanisms put into place. However, what has been done? Has any consultation or work been done to develop and implement a tracking device system on containers as they are being shipped?
