From my conversations with people, for example, who work in the Lake of the Woods and Rainy Lake water boards, which have federal and, I think, provincial members, it doesn't seem to me that as yet there has been an attempt to look at the system in its totality and what could be done in order to mitigate the chances of future flooding. Do you know...? Has that...?
I certainly wouldn't claim to know everything. Perhaps there has been some attempt to address the problem more globally. I don't expect you to have particular knowledge of this river system. I know you have a lot of other responsibilities.
If you don't know, could you look into it and let me know whether there has been any attempt to look at the whole system and what can be done to decrease the risk?
