My other question is for Professor Byers.
Professor, you explained in your report on circumpolar challenges that the Arctic Council is in the process of adopting a new treaty on oil spill preparedness and response. This treaty closely resembles the 1990 Convention on Oil Pollution Preparedness. It provides for signatories cooperating in the event of a spill, in such things as providing equipment and developing cleaner plants. You suggest, however, in the report that this is not adequate and that beyond preparedness we need to look at prevention. You suggest that what is really needed is an Arctic-wide treaty that focuses on oil spill prevention.
Can you speak a little bit more on how Canada might pursue an agreement on prevention and what such an agreement would provide for within the Arctic Council?
