Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank the witnesses very much for their very specific presentations and their good recommendations.
Both of you believe that we absolutely need a central focal point, and that was very clear in your presentation. In our study we are examining that need, I think that you were very clear on that point. I also appreciate the fact that you presented the European point of view and that of the EIA in the United States.
My question is about the steps that need to be taken. Mr. Egan, your first recommendation concerns the provincial jurisdiction, which is important. Given today's climate, do you have specific recommendations to make to the federal government on behalf of your organization and all of its members on the need to engage the provinces and municipalities, and on the specific measures that need to be taken to encourage collaboration?
