Thank you.
I would like to provide you with some information. The Municipality of Port Hope is one of the oldest nuclear communities in Canada, having had a facility--Cameco Corporation--which is a refinery, since the 1930s.
Currently, due to past business practices from the 1930s to the 1950s, we have material deposited throughout our urban area. In fact, my whole urban area is being decommissioned, so to speak. That process, which will also involve a small portion of the community of Clarington beside us, will cost the federal government $260 million, since it was originally a federal corporation.
Having said that, do I think $8,000 is not enough? As municipalities, we do not feel $650 million is sufficient in the unlikely event of an incident. Personally, I don't believe there should be a cap.
In regard to Canadians paying for that, I think the pool idea and the insurance are very important to the process so that it is not the responsibility of the federal, provincial, and municipal governments.
In regard to tribunal courts, my personal opinion would be that they should be at arm's length.
