Thank you, Mr. Dubé.
We got a lot of really negative media in the United States when this incident happened, and there has been ongoing media interest about this bill moving through Parliament.
New York State Senator Patty Ritchie attended the Senate committee meeting when Senator Runciman and I appeared. There is a lot of interest in this bill right now. That's why the hope is that it could be resolved prior to the boating season's getting into full swing in the next number of weeks.
In fact, we have high water levels which I think have slowed down the boating, at least in the Thousand Islands region. There is a lot of debris in the river.
I know you're going to be hearing from some departmental officials after Senator Runciman and me. You might ask them how they might promote this fix being done when, hopefully, the bill passes third reading in the House. I can assure you there will be significant media interest in upstate New York, and quite possibly in the other border regions across Canada, when this legislation passes through the House.
