I guess I'll ask a scenario question.

It's saying “the protection zone is to be connected to the First Nation lands”. We've heard, for example, that part of the NWT's source water is in Alberta. Because we're creating this amendment, then the first nation lands, because of that connection, would be actually able to help make sure those waters in Alberta are protected.

Is that how I understand it?
