I appreciate that and recognize that you are here representing all ports within Canada as the Association of Canadian Port Authorities.
Beyond the moratorium that is being imposed on the northwest coast of British Columbia, and perhaps the impact on Canada's reputation, when we were studying Bill C-48 we had witnesses appear before this committee who were recommending that we impose a moratorium along the entire coast of British Columbia. Then there were those who have asked, if it's for the coast of British Columbia, what about the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway, or the east coast? You can see how this does then begin to have a bit of a negative impact on our reputation—I think it certainly would internationally.
I will put this another way. How reliant are the port authorities on the reputation of our shipping industry that product can be moved safely in and out of your ports?
