Thank you, Chair.

Thank you, Minister, for your comments.

I want to pick up where you just left off, talking about emergency preparedness and the several aspects that encompass that file. You talked about emergency response plans and training. We can probably add in public awareness activities, equipment, and the list would go on.

To finish up your thoughts, in your view, are there certain aspects of emergency preparedness that are more important than others in the Arctic? If so, what are they and why?
