Before we move on to the other witnesses, I think you hit on something that's important to me in my region of the country.
The application process, as far as I understand it, is limited to municipalities or potentially provincial governments, I would argue, under the wording of the legislation, not that it matters greatly for present purposes. Is there a mechanism in place that allows users of the waterway, whether for recreational purposes, traditional purposes, or economic purposes, let's say a local business that wants to get their product onto a river for trade, to bring it to a municipality? If they don't have the power to apply, is there a mechanism to allow them to ask you to do it on their behalf? Has that ever happened? Do you see a mechanism there?
